Online training on intersectional discrimination in youth work

Contenido

The online training on intersectional discrimination in youth work includes 5 strands that address:
- Stereotypes, Power and Discrimination,
- Gender equality and Gender-based discrimination, 
- Racism and ethnic discrimination,
- Intersectional discrimination; and
- Addressing intersectional discrimination in youth work.
﻿
The main purpose of the training is to learn about the importance and ways of addressing intersectional discrimination and intersectional justice in youth work and to acquire skills to create a safe environment for young people. 
﻿
In addition, the training aims to introduce terms and concepts:
- stereotypes and prejudices and the types of discrimination based on them,
- gender equality, sexism and homophobia, 
- "race" and racism, and ethnicity and ethnic discrimination,
- intersectionality. 
﻿
The content of the training is based on a study of the field of intersectional discrimination, with a focus on the intersectionality of gender, race and ethnicity, on a review of the knowledge of the field among young people and youth workers in 3 countries (Slovenia, Italy, Romania), and on materials and tools in the field of intersectional, multiple discrimination. As intersectional discrimination is poorly recognised and addressed, youth workers face challenges in their work on how to act intersectionally and integrate this prism in all areas of their work. Intersectional discrimination refers to situations where an individual or group faces multiple forms of discrimination at the same time.
﻿
﻿
The content of the online training "Intersectional Discrimination in Youth Work" was developed by the Forum for Equitable Development in cooperation with project partners Global Institute, Nosotras Onlus and Asociatia Pro Democratia within the Erasmus+ project. More about the project on the website At the intersection of inequalities/discriminations.

The figure shows 4 different combinations of preserving one's culture and adapting to the host society. All these processes are always two-sided. Both the dominant culture and the ethnic minority participate in the intercultural space and adopt the posture that suits them best. Both groups should adapt and change. But unfortunately, power is not evenly distributed between the groups, which brings its own dynamics to each society.

An ethnic community identifies itself, or is identified by others, as a group of people linked by a common culture and other factors such as language, shared history, cohesion and religion.
Ethnic discrimination is different and usually worse treatment of a person from a particular ethnic group, based on ethnic origin. Discrimination occurs in all areas, including schooling, finding housing, finding a job and then at work, accessing services, including healthcare. As a result of discrimination, persons belonging to ethnic minorities suffer from multiple consequences, including poverty, poorer health, lower education and substandard living conditions. All this is accompanied by a low level of participation in decision-making processes at local and national levels.
Do you know someone from an ethnic minority? How do you talk to young people about ethnic discrimination?
