What is meant by "tool"?
A tool is any educational means, process or materials which can be used to support trainers, youth workers or young people themselves to better achieve the aims or goals of their activities.
It can be "touchable", "showable", like a video, a booklet, a report, a board game, etc.
It can be experienced, like a simulation game, a creative workshop, a quiz, a role play or any outdoor activities, etc.
