Preventing violent youth radicalisation: A restorative justice and human rights approach

Preventing violent youth radicalisation: A restorative justice and human rights approach

This CPD certified e-course aims to train teachers, youth workers and other professionals working or volunteering in formal or informal educational and crime prevention settings.

The e-course uses the values and practices of restorative justice and human rights in order to build knowledge, skills and capacity when working with children and young people who are at risk of marginalisation, group violence and violent radicalisation. A wholistic preventative model for prevention is presented, while a number of case studies allow the rich training material to be put in the everyday contact of young people.

Successful completion will lead to CPD (Continuous Professional Development) certification. You will be able to download your Certificate at the end of the course receiving 10 CPD units/ credits.

Where young people take part and are registered with one of our Erasmus+ funded projects, YouthPass Certification is also provided.

The e-course can be paused as many times as you need, and completed in your own time. It takes approximately 8 non-stop hours to fully complete all modules and take the test. Additional reading material are also provided for further learning and research.
