ALDA in support for the Establishment of Temporary Shelter Areas in Hatay (Türkiye)

Image
.

In the wake of the devastating earthquakes that struck Türkiye in 2023, Hatay Province emerged as one of the most severely affected regions, grappling with extensive damage and a desperate need for secure housing. The aftermath of the earthquakes left millions displaced, living in tents, and facing harsh winter conditions. Recognising the urgency of the situation, ALDA, in collaboration with the Fons Mallorquí de Solidaritat i Cooperació, initiated the project “Support for the Establishment of Temporary Shelter Areas in the Earthquake-Stricken Region of Hatay.”

The project kicked off in November 2023, with a dedicated focus on delivering beds to residents, including families, children, the elderly, single women, and people with disabilities residing in the shelter area of Hatay. As a result of effective coordination and swift action, the project nears completion and almost all beds have been delivered to families. A total of 264 households will benefit from the project.

Alda presents: The Peace Education Project

Image
peace project

Education is the first bastion for students to evolve with healthy and constructive approaches in which their empathy and compassion are developed. Moreover, skills such as conflict management and conflict resolution are more and more seeked out by teachers and youth workers who want to be able to thrive in their work with students and therefore have proper tools to rely on. 

To respond to this latent need, ALDA presents to you the PEACE project  - which full title is “Peace Education as a Tool for Effective Conflict Management in Secondary Schools” , funded by the European Union through the Erasmus+ programme. The project consortium consists of four associations and three universities from four  different countries: France, Türkiye, Portugal and Slovenia. The project aims to create an inclusive learning environment and to reduce violence by providing the necessary skills and knowledge to teachers and other educators to integrate Peace Education into their respective teaching experiences, providing students with the appropriate vocabulary, opportunities for practice and peaceful problem solving-skills.

The first deliverable consists of an Educational Framework based on a needs assessment (of teachers and students) and a literature review. This innovative handbook provides an overview of the state of school environments for teachers and students around the globe. It focuses on a thorough assessment of teachers' and students knowledge and needs regarding peace education. In parallel, the document presents the already existing good practices developed by different institutions from around the world and assesses different types of teaching methodologies that can be used in Peace Education.  

You can find this handbook here!

Our main deliverable will be an Online Course which will come out next fall and an Online Community to share good practices between formal and informal educators.

ALDA vous présente l'appel à candidature du programme WYDE

Le programme WYDE Civic Engagement auquel l'ALDA fait partie vient de lancer son appel pour un réseau de jeunes chercheurs. Douze bourses de recherche de 10 000 euros seront offertes à des jeunes professionnels, des étudiants en doctorat ou des jeunes diplômés travaillant sur des sujets liés à la participation des jeunes aux affaires publiques. L'objectif est de réunir ces 12 boursiers à différentes occasions et d'inspirer la collaboration et la participation entre les universitaires intéressés par ce domaine d'étude. Le réseau vise donc à être plus qu'une simple série de bourses de recherche. En effet, cette initiative réunira donc un groupe diversifié de jeunes universitaires internationaux et de praticiens du soutien à la démocratie afin de favoriser les échanges interrégionaux et interdisciplinaires sur le thème de la participation des jeunes aux démocraties dans le monde entier. Les universitaires du sud de la Méditerranée sont particulièrement encouragés à y participer!

Les jeunes chercheurs sélectionnés suivront un programme de trois ans, soutenu par la "Youth Democracy Cohort". Ils auront l'occasion d'échanger et d'apprendre avec des chercheurs et des personnes clés travaillant sur le thème de la participation des jeunes, de l'engagement civique et de la démocratie. Le programme prévoit un soutien de la part des tuteurs et des réunions régulières pour vérifier avec les participants l'état d'avancement de leur recherche et de l'analyse des données et s'ils ont besoin du soutien de leurs pairs. En outre, il y aura une formation en ligne sur les méthodologies de recherche, la collecte de données et la rédaction d'articles, et le programme prévoit des webinaires récurrents sur des sujets intéressants pour le jeune groupe de chercheurs.
