Date du début: 1 févr. 2016, Date de fin: 30 juin 2016 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

The eight-day international mobility for youth workers “Trans*gender rights are human rights - encouraging the visibility of Trans*identities in our societies” aims the further education of young people working with youth in the field of education with transsexual, genderqueer and intersex youth. Often transgender, genderqueer and intersex children and teenagers have to dispute with the rejection of their absolute legitimate gender identity by their personal and social environment. Due to their diverse gender identity they are subjected to social mechanisms of exclusion and discrimination more strongly than children and teenagers who have their gender identity within the binary system of the sexes. According to the statistics human beings who are discriminated and experience their results of social disadvantages abort schooling and apprenticeship more often than people living in the social mainstream.This activity shall affect that transsexual, genderqueer and intersex teenagers become more empowered to run free their identity honestly. In addition, the participants using this activity will learn action strategies and techniques intending an inclusion of people with diverse gender identities. The participants are integrated actively into the content configuration of this activity through the responsibility of every delegation in guiding a workshop and representing examples of their organisation’s “Good Practice” in the working with transsexual, genderqueer and intersex teenagers. All together 50 multipliers of youth work from eight nine different countries of the Europe and the Middle East shall participate in this project. To reach a variety of diverse views and social challenges in working for a social acceptation of transsexual, genderqueer and intersex people the participants of this project will be from geographic various regions of Europe and the Middle East. The participants will be all members of the partner organisations of this project.It is the activity’s long-ranging aim to base a culture of recognition of the human being’s variety and diversity in our society and to espouse the implementing of the human rights. Among others this is just possible if we as educational youth organisations supporting the youth education recognize our responsibility as co-creator of the civil society and resist social mechanisms of isolation.
