Description This training manual does not over-burden participants with legal terminology, but at the same time is clearly based on internationally defined human rights standards. The 24 exercises are designed for non-formal grass-roots education emphasising, among others: women's and children's issues, and organised around specified values, e.g., respect for dignity and fair rules, links between human rights and responsibilities, building civil society, confronting prejudice, and "information for empowerment", etc. The manual's highly participatory methods can be adapted to diverse settings and cultures and, while designed for popular education, nevertheless, have been successfully used in programmes of formal education as well.
