Mission Statement:
"To promote personal responsibility against prejudice and discrimination by increasing consciousness and understanding using educational interactive methods that create a respectful environment for everybody."

Pedagogical Information
The method of peer training is based upon the belief that young people deliver a message to their peers that is often more credible and efficient than when it is delivered by authority figures. Peer training methods have been used by many over the years - from those upholding theories of Aristotle - to joint educational systems, which were very popular in Europe in the 18th century.

Methaodogical Information
EPTO believes that prejudice and discrimination operate on three main levels: the individual, interpersonal, and institutional. The activities are interactive, experiential, and are rooted in the principles of intercultural learning. Participants are asked to share experiences and opinions, to practice active listening skills with others, and to learn emotionally as well as intellectually. Participants are also expected to develop an action plan that demonstrates personal responsibility for confronting prejudice and discrimination in society.
