The FAIRact project implements offers for the promotion of democracy, especially by focusing on the reduction of phenomena of group-related misanthropy, at vocational schools and institutions of open child and youth work and addresses both the pedagogical professionals (teachers, trainers, school social workers, social pedagogues) and young people in these institutions. The project focuses on strengthening action and communication skills with the help of qualification measures for professionals. Another central aspect is the constructive preparation and involvement of young people who want to actively work as “peer helpers” at their (vocational) school or the respective institution within the framework of a peer-to-peer approach.
The aim is to promote democracy and counteract anti-human attitudes as well as to negotiate a common basis of values – without humiliating the other person for possibly problematic attitudes.
