One of jhr’s main focuses is on fostering a dialogue to create social change; as such, domestic education initiatives play a large role within the University Chapter Program.
jhr‘s Train the Trainer Program
Journalists for Human Rights has developed a Train the Trainer (TTT) Program that provides certification to all participants who attend the workshop and then successfully move on to deliver their own workshop.
There are three tiers to this program in order to help jhr reach the goal of increasing the overall awarneess of human rights in Canada. Each level of workshops, starting with Train the Trainer, will educate and empower more Canadians on human rights issues.
The first tier of jhr’s Train the trainer program beings with the delivery of three regional workshops across Canada. Each workshop will include twenty-five jhr Chapter Member participants. These workshops will train Chapter members to deliver the same workshop to their colleagues.
The second tier of jhr’s Train the Trainer program is Chapter Sponsored Workshops which will be delivered by the seventy-five Chapter members who participated int he initial Train the Trainer workshops. These workshops will be the same as the first tier of this program. This workshop will train participants how to design and deliver their own workshop on ‘how to run a human rights media campaign.”
The third tier of jhr’s Train the Trainer program is Campus/Community Workshops. These workshops are designed and delivered by the participants of the Chapter Sponsored Workshops. These workshops will train participants how to run a human rights media campaign.
