What

This workshop by Connect Futures supports youth workers to confidently address the fall-out surrounding acts of community violence, most notably the riots of August 2024.

It will provide some contextual understanding of issues like Islamophobia and the Far Right, whilst equipping participants with the skills and confidence to support impacted young people; both those who were targets of hate and those involved in the violence.

Learning Out Comes

• Better understanding of extreme far right ideologies and activities, as well as concepts like Islamophobia and anti-Muslim hate.
• More informed on the realities and consequences young people will face for involvement in criminal activity; via testimonial from lived experience facilitators
• Better understand the role of identity in community violence; e.g masculinity, race, ethnicity
• Up-skilled in tools to conduct difficult, trauma informed conversations with impacted young people
• Skilled in practical tips to stay safe both on and offline; learnt via role-play.
