RIDE Toolbox<\/h1>\n

The RIDE Toolbox<\/strong><\/a> is made up of four components<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Firstly<\/strong>, the Principles and Approaches Report<\/strong><\/a> provides theoretical background for inclusive, diverse and equality-based youth work practice and overview of legislative framework in partner countries.<\/p>\n

Secondly<\/strong>, the Good Practice Directory<\/strong><\/a> gives 15 good examples of inclusive youth work with different groups of young people such as youth with disabilities or behavioural problems, youth from Roma and other ethnic minorities, young migrants and more.<\/p>\n

The third<\/strong> component of the Toolbox is the RIDE Practice Resource<\/strong><\/a> which provides youth workers with set of ten new session plans<\/strong> dealing with topics less treated in existing resources including also challenging and hot issues. Each session plan contains topic introduction, relevant statistics and data overview and set of non-formal activities such as roleplaying, games and discussions and finally evaluation methods. Moreover, the RIDE website incorporates a set of existing practice resources<\/strong><\/a> organised by target group, topic, age range and language.<\/p>\n

Finally<\/strong>, the Education and Training Resource<\/strong><\/a> which is composed of two types of training contents:\u00a0 University Module<\/strong> and Training Course<\/strong> for youth work practitioners.<\/p>\n

The RIDE University module<\/strong> intends to help university lecturers develop a course of teaching around topics linked with Inclusion, Diversity and Equality.\u00a0 It contains 12 weeks of suggested content with suitable ways into the topic, suggested literature and ways to help students apply their learning to both a specific country context and a youth work setting.<\/p>\n

The Training Course<\/strong> is focused on youth work practitioners\u2019 better understanding of inclusive youth work, exploring equality and diversity. Original activities intend to enable trainees to reflect on their own perceptions and to explore individual attitudes, values and beliefs in a safe and fair environment. The Course also promotes a positive culture where all individuals are respected and value each other.<\/p>\n
