YEREVAN, DECEMBER 7, NOYAN TAPAN. On the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the European Convention on Human Rights, the Directorate of Youth and Sport of the Council of Europe launched its Human Rights Education Youth Programme. The programme aims to put human rights at the centre of youth work and thereby to contribute to the bringing of human rights education into the mainstream. One of the achievements of the programme was the creation of COMPASS, the manual on human rights education with young people. The central aim of this publication is to make human rights education accessible, usable and useful to educators, teachers, volunteers and trainers who are active in educational activities with young people.
