Train your skills in human rights.
DISCOVER THE PROJECT
Our main objective is to improve, through mutual learning, the way in which we can use the COMPASS Manual in our trainings, in our activities with young people, directly influencing the development and commitment to the Defence of Human Rights.
THE COMPASS MANUAL
The Compass manual is a manual for human rights education with young people, first published in 2002 within the framework of the Human Rights Education Youth Program of the Directorate of Youth and Sport of the Council of Europe.
​
The program was created because human rights education, that is, all activities that focus on the promotion of equality and human dignity, is an important value in the formation of citizenship.
​
It is not possible just to be a holder of human rights, because in order to promote and manifest them, they must be defended and upheld. That is why human rights education is necessary.

About We Are Compass Followers
Sometimes happens that extraordinary tools, magnificently designed, do not permeating the lower levels of society because they are not replicated or properly understood.
​
We want this project to be a framework in which we can reflect, transfer and provide ourselves with a suitable framework and contribute to the visibility of the COMPASS manual.
We also want it to help us work towards the General Development Goals for 2030, and to help our institutions to become multiplier entities in the complex historical moment we are living through.
TOPIC
Therefore, we will elaborate a summary for youth workers, useful and easy to apply, which compiles practices and working tools obtained from the COMPASS manual and allows us to work with young people at risk of exclusion.
2 transnational activities will be implemented in which we will work together on the development of a summary. This will be a real experience of youth workers through the implementation of activities taken from the COMPASS manual with young people at risk of exclusion. The final summary will be available in Spanish and Serbian.
