Equality Network Weekend Workshop kit

Description

Twice a year the Volunteers from the EIL Development Education Committee plan and deliver workshops intended to raise awareness about global issues among EIL Network members. The themes of the workshops are decided by a consensus decision of the committee, and everyone pitches in to bring the content together. In this kit we are really pleased to share with you our workshop on “Equality”.

This guide provides workshop facilitation for equality in a ‘step by step’ format.

Each activity is accompanied by aim, learning outcome, detailed facilitator notes and debriefing and evaluation exercises. A strong ‘action’ component is included at the end of this resource for groups to follow
