T-KIT4 Imtercultural learning
T-KIT4 Imtercultural learning
This T-Kit was developed for the context of youth work and non-formal education with young people, both of which support the personal development, social integration and active citizenship of young people. Educators and youth workers have an important role in addressing intercultural learning in their work with young people. They can stimulate young people’s learning in their daily lives, so that they can question and extend their perception, develop competences to interact positively with people from different cultural backgrounds and embrace the values of diversity, equality and dignity. In today’s Europe, these values and skills are fundamental for young people and for society as a whole in order to continue building peace and mutual understanding.

Each resource includes abstracts, authorship details, publishing dates, and usage guidance. The resources are available in multiple formats, such as brochures, reports, games, posters, and videos.
