[hr-education] Council of Europe campaign guide about education and learning for change

Companion - A campaign guide about education and learning for change in
Diversity, Human Rights and Participation (24/05/2007)

This guide has been produced under the Council of Europe's Youth Campaign
for Diversity, Human Rights, and Participation "All Different-All Equal".
The campaign provides an essential stimulus for common action to promote
diversity, participation and human rights. It seeks to bring attention
both to the issues themselves and the methods used to address them. Such
mobilisation is vital if we wish to establish strong public awareness
throughout Europe of these values. Racism, social exclusion, disempowered
minorities and deficient participation are problems that can neither be
solved overnight, nor by singular efforts. These problems need sustained,
long-term attention which focuses on changing basic attitudes, redressing
structural injustices, empowering the socially excluded and enabling
properly functioning democratic societies. Education plays a key role in
these pursuits and therefore needs to be at the centre of this campaign,
and beyond. This guide is intended to support campaigners, activists and
educators to advocate and educate to reach these goals. The guide builds
on the approaches and methodologies of "Compass" - the manual on human
rights education for young people.
