Training Package

The guidance and tools for programme coordinators and facilitators in the Adolescent Kit are intended to be easy to use.

All users should be able to find the resources they need with minimal formal orientation or training, and to use these resources through programmes and interventions that uphold good practices for working with and for adolescents.

But some programme coordinators designing new programmes or seeking to strengthen existing programmes may find it helpful to organize a preparatory workshop to support managers, trainers, facilitators and other volunteers or staff to use the resources in the Adolescent Kit.

Intended to be used along with the guidance and tools for programme coordinators and facilitators included in the Adolescent Kit, the training package aims to:

Training Package
  • Prepare managers and trainers to train facilitators to plan and lead activities with and for adolescents, upholding the principles and standards, and using good practices and methods, of human rights-based approaches – equity, education, psychosocial support and protection.
  • Support managers and trainers in developing and implementing plans to use the resources in the Kit, adapting and addressing their plans to the needs and priorities of adolescents with whom they work, and to their programme goals and objectives.

Like all materials in the Adolescent Kit, these training resources are intended to be used flexibly, and to be adapted as appropriate to specific programme goals and contexts and adolescent needs.

The training package includes five modules:

  1. Overview of the Adolescent Kit for Expression and Innovation
  2. Reaching and including adolescents
  3. Building Adolescent Circles
  4. Choosing and planning activity phases for adolescents
  5. Implementation and roll-out planning

Each module is divided into four or five sessions, each of which includes:

  • Objectives: What workshop participants will learn or create in each session.
  • Activities: The training activities that the workshop participants will carry out, with support from the trainer.
  • References: The sections of guidance or tools from the Adolescent Kit that workshop participants will use in each session.
  • PowerPoint presentations providing the information and guidance for trainers and workshop participants to carry out the activities in each module.
