Project is dedicated to three target groups. First is a team of 20 youth trainers who will participate in intense training on the topic of Alternative Dispute Resolution delivered by professional mediators and conflict managers. They will afterwards combine this knowledge with non-formal education tools and prepare a whole new set of teaching methods. Second group consists of 150 - 200 youth leaders and young professionals who will participate and evaluate the training courses developed and delivered by the youth trainers. The third target group includes partner organisations, professional ADR institutions, educational institutions, stakeholders active on the labour market, other interested individuals (at least 250 representatives). They will participate in dissemination activities and will be invited to an open discussion on the topic of importance of implementation of ADR into regular educational activities and its validation on the labour market. ‘First ADR Kit’ will include the following activities: Research on ADR service and education; Preparation of ICT web portal ADR training for youth trainers; Preparation of new workshop scenarios combining ADR with NFE (including two games scenarios); Series of trainings for youth; Conferences and dissemination activities. All activities will be conducted with the use of Non-Formal Education. Special focus will be given to simulation games and practical workshops in order to fully experience the use and challenges connected with conflict management. The project will result with several ‘hard’ outcomes, such us: methodological handbook, workshop scenarios, simulation games, online webpage with elements of ICT. It will also result in higher competences of young people with regard to conflict resolutions, their increased sense of initiative and entrepreneurship due to better understanding of the mechanisms ruling disputes, willingness to use professional ADR services and to pursue further training in this field, more reliable and relation-friendly atmosphere in the business sector, bigger awareness on the importance of providing ADR education already on the early stage of education/professional career. In a long term the project might initiate the first in Europe network of youth organisations specialised in ADR. It will also help improve the quality and sustainability of relations in public and private sectors, encourage more open and conciliatory approach in everyday communication and enable much more active participation of youth in their communities.
