      Promote affective freedom

      EchoLovewas born as an Erasmus+ research project to support school and youth educators in addressing a crucial challenge:toxic relationships between young people.


      We do not just talk about feelings: we provideconcrete tools to analyze control dynamics, recognize the signs of manipulation and promote a culture of the rare relationship free and consensual couple relationship.

      Free access to manuals, videos and teaching cards for freedesigned for the world of non-formal education.


    Not formal and awareness

    Many young people live toxic relationships without knowing it. And this is the first step towards violence.
    EchoLoveis an Erasmus+ research project born to address a silent reality: affective manipulation that often acts in unawareness. Those who suffer it does not recognize it, those who exercise it sometimes is not aware of it. But the consequences are real:isolation, loss of self-esteem, progressive control, and in many cases, escalation of violence up to dramatic outcomes.
    Our goal is to stop this cycle.We provide teachers and educators toolkits, research and educational activities to bring light on these dynamics. Because teaching how to recognize manipulation means preventing violence. It means giving young people the freedom to love without fear.

    "Before I thought it was love..."
    The words and discoveries of the boys who lived the Echolove project

    "It was nice to find out that I am not wrong if certain things are not fine to me. But it's over too early! More meetings would serve, more spaces where we can return to talk about them when new things happen."
