Compass: human rights themes
Compass (Council of Europe)

Compass provides youth leaders, teachers and facilitators of human rights education activities, whether professionals or volunteers, with concrete ideas and practical activities to engage, involve and motivate young people in living, learning and acting for human rights.

Compass was first published in 2002 within the framework of the Human Rights Education Youth Programme by the Council of Europe and has been updated many times since then.
