Nowadays, European societies continue to suffer from a growth of racist hostility and intolerance towards minorities. The necessity for continuing intercultural youth work remains unquestionable.
The usefulness of this pack stems from the variety and creativity of the methodologies proposed. The role plays, simulation exercises, case studies and cooperative group work that this reference document proposes will be an inspiration to many youth workers, trainers, teachers and other people actively involved in intercultural education.

DOMINO: A manual to use peer group education as a means to fight racism, xenophobia, anti-semitism and intolerance (3rd edition, 2005) ISBN 13: 978-92-871-5750-8 Price: € 13
Recipes for educational work do not really exist, particularly not recipes of similar value for all European societies. Youth workers, and teachers most constantly adapt to the special requirements of young people and their social environment. DOmino tries to give some assistance to those working with young people on peer group education projects.
DOmino is the result of different youth work practices in several European countries, both in the formal and informal educational sector. The editors have drawn from experiences in youth organisations, youth initiatives and schools. The existing diversity in Europe is also reflected in the presentation of different practical approaches, aimed at enriching the dialogue between and amongst young people and adults.
