Participants are able
· to reflect upon and express their own role in processes of exclusion and inclusion at personal,
interpersonal and structural levels in a global context
· to critically reflect on the role of prejudices, power inequalities and ideologies in peace work
and to begin to develop strategies to counter their negative effects
· to explain and build upon the anti-bias and social inclusion approach in their own work context
Peace Work aims at establishing and nurturing inclusive societies that provide equal access to
social, political and economic resources to all—irrespective of their ethnic origin, age, gender,
physical or mental condition, religious background, sexual orientation, etc. The training introduces
the concepts of Anti-Bias and Social Inclusion. It aims at strengthening respect for diversity
and creating awareness for discrimination and social exclusion.
Participants will reflect how they themselves are involved and/or affected by the social/global
power relations. They will learn how to initiate processes of prejudice awareness that motivate
and equip individuals, groups and institutions to critically confront their discriminatory attitudes
and actions, and thus develop sustainable empowering structures.
