SUMMARY:“Mission Diversity” - Winter school

The programme combines expert input with hands-on methods like role play\, real-life case discussions\, creative reflection and practical skill-building. \n\nOn the final day\, participants will host an open conference with a keynote speaker\, inviting church leaders into the conversation and encouraging them to take responsibility for change. By the end\, participants will feel more confident in recognising and challenging racism\, hate speech and microaggressions\, building stronger alliances for justice and creating safer\, more inclusive spaces for everyone. \n📅 When: 9 – 13 March 2026 \n✈️ Travel days: 8 & 14 March 2026\n📍 Where: Hamburg\, Germany\n👥 Who: Young people aged 18–35 from Italy\, Germany\, Finland and Poland – applications from youth in all Council of Europe member states are welcome! \nApplication deadline 25 January 2026 \n  \nThe participation fee for the training is €50\, which covers accommodation\, meals\, and the program. \nTravel expenses will be reimbursed if the journey is planned in the most economical way possible. \nWSCF-Europe aims to ensure that financial barriers do not prevent anyone from participating in this training\, therefore\, we are also committed to supporting those who need financial assistance. \nPlease apply through this application form. \n\nFor any questions\, contact: conference@wscf-europe.org \nThe training is supported by Otto Per Mille of the Waldensian Church
