“People enjoy learning from each other how to embrace their differences and realize their unique potential”
A unique 20-year expertise in combining peer training, experiential learning and diversity education
EPTO develops and sustain partnerships with key stakeholders in the fields of youth, diversity and education
Our vision is of a world where all young people receive the education they need for achieving their full potential.
Our mission is to offer young people accessible educational opportunities that help them achieve their full potential.
We chose to dedicate our Event for members to the issue of extremism among young people because it is a growing concern of youth workers from our network, and way beyond. Initiatives start to emerge at the policy and institutional level but there's still a lot to be done in the educational field, and we believe peer education can support different approaches in the sector of education for tackling these issues.
EPTO is partnering with the PeaceJam Foundation to implement their award-winning peace education programme in Belgium!
Unleashing the potential of young people to create a world for everyone
Following the success of the 1st PeaceJam Youth Conference in Belgium, we are thrilled to announce that EPTO is in charge of implementing the PeaceJam peace education programme in Belgium!
Since 20 years, EPTO has been promoting peer education at the European level. Brussels, where the organisation is based, is not only the European Capital however: it is also home to a very young and diverse local population.
According to the website « Empower yourself with color psychology », « ORANGE is the color of adventure and social communication. The color psychology of orange is optimistic and uplifting, rejuvenating our spirit. In fact orange is so optimistic and uplifting that we should all find ways to use it in our everyday life, even if it is just an orange colored pen that we use. Orange brings spontaneity and a positive outlook on life and is a great color to use during tough economic times, keeping us motivated and helping us to look on the bright side of life ».
