Today we are facing the fast development of technology. Technology helps us to connect with different parts of the world, makes information going fast and gives the opportunity for all information to be found in one place - the internet. Apart from this advantage we face another challenge - digital violence. Internet is accessible almost to everyone today without knowing how to use and to behave. Because of that there are a lot of situations of digital violence that start harmless and lead to serious situations such as suicide, depression, disappointment, ending of relationships... Most of the digital violence we are facing on social networks such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. People are still not aware about the digital violence and consequences that are part of social networks.

The main aim of the training is to raise awareness about digital violence today and to share good practice among youth workers how to present such a sensitive topic.

Specific objectives:

1. To gain skills and knowledge to youth workers and leader how to work with young people under the topic digital violence

2. to explore and share methodologies and connect work among organizations and bring it to an international level

3. to straighten cooperation among EU and non-EU countries

We want to create a youth that can use their digital competences and consume internet for their professional and personal development.

During the training there will be also a making of videos with the participants. The content should be their personal experience or view on digital violence. The aim is to show that potentially everyone can get a victim of digital violence. The videos should be posted on web pages owned by participants or partner organisations and on their social networks. This will be a possibility to make the campaign more visible and to raise awareness among a wider group of people.

TRAINING IN HUNGARY - CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS

Noored Ühiskonna Heaks (NYH) is promoting a call for participants for a Training Course called “Bumblebees” which will take place in 16^th until 24^th March 2015 in Perkupa, Hungary.

The aim of the project is to raise the quality of youth exchanges by enhancing creativity in the methodology and by ensuring that the youth exchange group leaders are implementing their project in real co-operation and according to the requirements of the Erasmus + programme.

The reason for us to apply for this training course is because over the past few years we observed certain monotony, repetition in the youth exchanges where we delegate youth groups. We believe that youth exchanges are a great tool to unleash the creative potential of young people therefore we also think the process of these projects should also be of a creative approach. We would simply like to raise the quality of youth exchanges by putting a special focus on creativity aspects and to use creative techniques in a more conscious and efficient way. We would like to equip youth workers and youth activity leaders with handy tools and enable them to make creative use of the tools provided, hence contribute to the innovation of youth exchange projects.
