Subject: Call for applicants

The OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights will
organize on May 31-June 2, 2008 a training for civil society
representatives on how to prevent and to respond to hate crimes in
Warsaw, Poland.

This two and a half day training will provide civil society
organizations with a menu of tools to build a more effective response to
hate violence. Using techniques modeled in the training, NGOs will craft
and implement strategies tailored to individual country and community
challenges. Civil society participants will be trained on a variety of
models; from establishing partnerships with officials, to monitoring,
and victim support. The training will include lecture, group
discussions, interactive activities, and small group work covering all
the major topic areas in the resource guide. At the culmination of the
training, participants will have an opportunity to propose a small scale
project modeled on the training to implement in their community.

The training will be conducted in English.

Participants are welcome to apply online until March 31, 2008.
Additional information and application form are posted on the Tolerance
and Non-discrimination System :
