New Tactics has developed tools for human rights practitioners to use for their own training activities. Many of these tools have been created for our own trainings that we have carried out with human rights practitioners. You will also find tools here that have been developed by Training for Change. These tools will help you train others on strategic thinking, tactical innovation, and team building.
Some of these tools have been translated. You can also view a full listing of our translated content.
