Youth, as a class, experience vulnerabilities and marginalization on the basis of their age; this is known as ageism. This module will discuss the hierarchy of ageism and carla bergman’s framework for youth development and autonomy from her book Trust Kids, as well as provide support for participants in understanding their role in youth-led advocacy movements and spaces. This module will also explore the role of theory and knowledgesharing activities as a method of bridging generational gaps and will evaluate book bans through a youth rights lens.
The Human Rights Educators USA’s virtual Training As Action Series (TAAS) focuses on bridging personal and collective action on some of the most critical human rights issues of today. The annual series is offered each year between September and April.
The theme of the 2024-2025 training series is: “Youth Power, Defending Human Rights: Learnings and Actions for the 35th Anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC).” Sessions will discuss topics such as youth rights, the CRC, education as a tool for empowerment, international youth solidarity, the theory of change, digital citizenship, and mental wellness.
You can register for individual sessions or you can register for the entire series. Participants that attend at least six sessions over the course of the 2024-2025 TAAS program (including the introductory session) will receive a certification from HRE USA.
