Qualifications in Human Rights with Professionals from Casa de Passagem
 
 
Human Rights Training

The employees of Casa de Passagem, who work directly with the children and adolescents supported, are trained in Human Rights, with the objective to improve the service provided to the public, and to enable Casa de Passagem´s employees to train community leaders and Adolescent Multipliers of Information (AMIs).

During the last qualifications training session twenty-eight professionals from CP were trained by Wellington Martins, lawyer and specialist in community therapy. The class lasted for 32 hours in total, broken into eight sessions of four hours each. The history and conception of human rights was the focus of the inaugural class.

AMI Training

With training, these youth become Adolescent Multiplyers of Information (AMIs). Not only do they disseminate information on sexuality/health, gender, citizenship, environment, but they also construct a new vision of world, with a deeper sense of responsibility and of social belonging. They develop socio-political protagonism in their communities.
