In order to reach the main objective of the project, the partnership will create and develop four resources specifically designed for youth workers, counselors, trainers, mentors, volunteers and young people aged between 18-30 years:
O1: Assessment Algorithm for Measuring Sexual HarassmentA tool to help young people identify levels of risks, behaviors and beliefs associated with sexual harassment manifested in different forms (verbal, physical, visual and psychological) and activities to be taken to prevent sexual harassment in accordance with the identified level of sexual harassment.
|
O2: Youth training package "How to say NO!"The training package includes a curriculum, training contents and methodology designed to ensure a solid training needed for youth workers, trainers, counselors, mentors and volunteers who work with young people (aged 18-30) to help them to prevent and to deal with gender based discrimination, sexual harassment, and sexual assault.
|
O3: Online course "Sexual harassment at work place"An online course of five hours structured in modules and dedicated to young employees aged between 18-30 years + a face to face course. The course is intended to change attitudes, beliefs and behaviors of young employees, as well as to find effective ways to no longer accept to be sexually harassed and to have appropriate reactions, which lead to the prevention of the phenomenon.
|
O4: "Guidelines to Prevent sexual harassment at work"Guidelines for mentors and representatives of employers working with young employees to understand their responsibilities, but also the actions they can take to prevent sexual harassment at work. The guidelines will also provide them information about how to settle positive working environment and how to prevent sexual abuse in working settings in different cultural backgrounds.

What's going on in the project?
After two years of hard work, project #NOTME is coming to an end. On the 27th of October, in Bologna, we held the dissemination event: a chance for us to share the outcomes of the project and give the opportunity to all the participants to get to know more about what we did and what we achieved by this fruitful collaboration.
During the event, we presented the results of the partnership, now available for download on the project website, and we tested some activities taken from the training materials. We really hope that all the people involved in @NOTME these past years will continue fighting against gender based discrimination, empowered by the results achieved and the materials created. The fight for a more inclusive world does not stop here. |
As we find ourselves in the heart of August, a time often associated with summer getaways, the NOTME team instead met in the sun-soaked city of Iasi, Romania, for the conclusive TPM session. This marked a pivotal moment as we mapped out the final phases of our project. On the 16th, all partners engaged in a discussion centered around the upcoming autumn's multiplier events. These gatherings will take place in all partners' locations (Iasi, Prague, Wismar, Klaipeda, and Bologna) and serve as platforms to disseminate the fruits of our collective work over the past two years, reaching both the youth, stakeholders and trainers involved. In the near future, all our project results will be accessible on the project website, presented in six different languages for wider accessibility. Be sure to keep an eye for forthcoming updates concerning the multiplier events and the achievements of our project. Stay tuned!

Our 4th TPM in PragueOn the 20th and 21st of June 2023 NOTME team met in sunny Prague for one of the last TPM of our NOTME project! This time, we were hosted by notme Czech partners, GENDER STUDIES: a non-governmental non-profit organisation. GS is an information, education and consulting centre on gender equality and on the position of men and women in the society. And this is not all…they also proudly run a library covering variety of publications and materials related to feminism, gender studies, women’s and men’s rights. It was right in this library that the meeting took place, surrounded by a huge variety of books on the topic of our project. NOTME is almost coming to an end, and we could not be prouder of what we are achieving.

Workshop “Train the trainer" in Italy"Being a sensitive, if not a taboo topic, sexual harassment is a subject that is rarely approached in youth training and education. This is why in the field of our project #NOTME we developed the workshop “Train the trainer ``How to say no! Prevent gender based discrimination, sexual harassment and sexual assault!``: an innovative training which offered the participants not only the skills and knowledge on how to help young people to prevent gender inequalities, sexual harassment or assault, but also provided new tools and methods to reach youth, to lead discussions interactively, to support self-reflection and to create a safe and positive environment needed when approaching such a topic.
20 participants from all the 5 partner countries joined the workshop, which was held in Bologna on the 6th, 7th and 8th of March, where they benefited from peer learning and experience exchange in a multicultural and multilingual environment." First TPM in KlaipedaThe 23rd of June, 2022, after months of online meetings, the #NOTME team finally met in person in Klaipeda (Lithuania) for the first TPM of the project.
It was a true pleasure to discuss and brainstorm together on the next steps of our project. We are ready and eager to reach the first achievements and to share them with you! |
Our TPM in WismarOur 2023 started with a trip to cold Wismar, in the north of Germany, where all NOTME partners participated in the 3rd TPM of our project, hosted by @hochschule_wismar. Half way through our project, we analysed our achieved results: – Our assessment algorithm for measuring sexual harassment and assault – Our youth training package, including non formal activities to help the prevention of gender based discrimination, sexual harassment and sexual assault. Two more achievements are ahead of us and this meeting was the perfect occasion to discuss them and plan our next steps. Next location: Bologna! First Online MeetingOn the 7th of January 2022 the first meeting took place, unfortunately, through a Google Meet conversation. The partners had the possibility to present themselves. Asociatia Demetrius gave an overview of the project, assigning to each partner their responsibilities. We also discussed the organisation of the kick off meeting, which will take place, again online, the 9th of February.
