Project Description
6-day training program which will take place in Szolnok, Hungary (There is no fixed

The aim of the project is to explore unconscious bias and emotional literacy of youth
workers so that they can make more informed choices and decisions and to foster the
importance of diversity in inclusion.
Objectives of the TC:
1. Understanding emotional literacy:
Becoming more aware of EQ: Noticing what we do, Becoming more intentional: Doing
what we mean. Becoming more purposeful. Doing it for a reason
2. Understanding the Impact of Unconscious Bias: Why do we have biases? What are
the impacts of these biases? How can I identify and address these biases when they
emerge? How can I identify and address biases in others? These questions will be
explored and participants will find their answers to that. The effect of projecting our
values onto others, Recognising and mitigating unconscious bias, Learning to adapt
our behaviour in ways that will create a more productive working situation
3.Planning for change to create an inclusive culture in our environment (workplace,
schools etc.) What systems, processes and/or behaviour expectations can we put in
place to reduce the risk of unfair biased decisions occurring
4. Present a new perspective of Erasmus+ programme
