The training course first focused on participants getting to know each other and building a team to work together more productively. Then the participants were introduced to the human rights timeline and the basics and background of the European Convention of Human Rights by the Council of Europe. Through the "Who wants to be a Millionnaire" quiz game participants got to know basic terms connected to human rights.

The project then focused on the issues of human rights in our communities - discrimination, hate speech and violence, specifically connected to homophobia and transphobia.

The participants also explored the theories connected to hate and violence and specifics of extremism on the regional level. To analyse the roots and context of the oppressive narratives, day 4 concentrated on deconstructing hate speech and oppressive narratives. The second part of the training course focused more on responding to oppressive narratives, best practices and designing counter and alternative narratives. On the last day participants together created a calendar of action plan and evaluated the project.
