This manual constitutes a collection of the methods, activities, initiatives and
projects of the training courses “I can do it! Support civil courage within the EVS”
and “Stand up! Support civil courage within your youth projects” organized by the Austrian organization Grenzenlos Intercultural Exchanges. The training courses took place in June and July 2015 with financial support of the Erasmus+
programme and the European Youth Foundation. The two training courses
involved 50 participants from 26 partner organizations who worked together
intensively exploring the topic and methodologies on civil courage in youth
work. After the training courses, a part of the voluntary team concluded that a
selection of the explored methodologies would be very helpful to spread civil
courage among other young people and to share the results and methods of
the training courses with other youth workers, trainers, volunteers, teachers
and those who dedicate their work to equal rights and active participation of
young people.
