Sažetak
The meeting Human Rights Education and Fundamental Rights Awareness for Psychologist, held in Venice in October 2016, gathered a group of twentyish dedicated and optimistic psychologists and experts in human rights mostly from Europe and few from other continents who shared the idea of necessity of human rights education for psychologists. After reminding why psychology matters in human rights and why human rights matter in psychology, the meeting proceeded to defining the role of psychologists and their motivation in promotion of human rights and prevention of human rights violation. The next important step was to raise awareness of what psychologists, as experts, have to offer to human rights promotion and to relate it with the ethical codes that psychological association worldwide have. Further, expected competences for psychologists in the sphere of human rights were listed. The relevant theoretical aspects for the human rights education for psychologists were discussed. Core content and optional content of the curriculum for such education were suggested, and the relevant educational sources were numbered. Examples of the best and poor psychological research and practices, malpractice as well as passivity were analysed for the educational purposes. The meeting ended with the conclusion that development of a training on human rights for both psychologists and students of psychology was necessary, at various levels: in higher education, post-doc and in continuous professional development. All three organisers of the meeting in Venice: EFPA, FRA (European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights) and EIUC (European Inter-University Centre for Human Rights and Democratisation), as well as many participants at the meeting expressed their interest in continuation of conceiving and developing of the human rights education for psychologists. A set of actions and the timeline was proposed. For the year 2017 forming of few working groups was foreseen, as well as fundraising activities and preparation of the pilot curriculum. The presentation will inform about the progress of the human rights education for psychologists.
