“Public Information and Need of Knowledge” NGO with the support of Foreign Affairs Ministry of Norway has started to implement the project “Diversity” since November 2010.  Within the project the organization is implementing “Knowledge and Rights” 2-day training course, which aims to unite youth around such values as cultural diversity, respect towards different groups in the society, tolerance, equality, human rights, democracy, civil society etc.

Participation to the “Knowledge and Rights” training will allow you not only to get knowledge about stereotypes, prejudices, discrimination, tolerance, human rights, democracy and civil society, discuss it all with other interested and active young people, but also to obtain new acquaintances, new opportunities for cooperation, as well as to create a ground for your own civil initiatives.
