To support youth organisations, the EYF has now published a Toolbox on inclusive practices. The Toolbox is the result of a collaborative process involving representatives of youth organisations. The Toolbox includes concrete ideas on how to incorporate inclusive practices into youth activities, including European Youth Foundation (EYF) supported projects.
It focuses on 6 areas of project management: finance, participants, logistics, online activities, team and atmosphere, programme and content.
Under each area, the resource presents “top-tips”, a list of potential barriers to inclusion, inclusive approaches and actions, and an “inclusion check-list”. In addition, the Toolbox includes ideas about establishing a safer space, directions of monitoring and evaluation and additional relevant resources produced by the Council of Europe. This resource is to provide youth organisations with practical ideas and encourage them to examine their practices through the lens of inclusion and diversity. The suggestions included in the Toolbox aim to plant a seed, to inspire and encourage youth organisations, and need to be adapted to their specific context and reality.
A specific webpage on inclusion in youth projects is also available on the EYF website, with additional resources.
