The program aims to equip professionals working with young people and adolescents to raise awareness and prevent gender-based violence, including LGTBI-phobic incidents, in nightlife and socialization settings among youth. Due to the international nature of CRISSCROSS, the design and implementation of this training carry the complexity and necessity of adapting to highly diverse cultural contexts. Specific nuances must be addressed through local knowledge, requiring the adjustment of dynamics and materials to effectively engage the target audience. Therefore, the CRISSCROSS training constitutes a general thematic structure or framework where each partner must incorporate and address their realities using their own materials. 

METHODOLOGY - This training spans 40 hours, organized into four blocks subdivided into thematic areas, further developed over a total of 17 sessions. Out of the forty hours, 20 hours will be devoted to the theoretical framework necessary to assume the perspective proposed by CRISSCROSS. To this end, each block will focus on a different topic: sexualities and gender; substance use, risks and pleasures; sexual violence focused on the aggressor. The remaining 20 hours will be spent on practical exercises that will consolidate the theory taught in specific contexts, while developing the intervention methodology that we wish to propose. Thus, the initial sessions of each block will be dedicated to the specific theme of the block and the last two will always be used for the methodological approach.

For the theoretical approach to the specific themes, we propose a participatory methodology based on exercises with audiovisual and other types of materials that present the topics attractively, giving space and value to the previous knowledge of the trainees. To achieve this, it is important to adapt the materials to the contexts of both trainers and trainees, making it clear that this adaptation does not refer to the modification of the topics or the perspective from which they should be approached, but only to the way of facilitating the sessions, which is why it is important to review the prologues of each block to become familiar with the proposal.

Development of the intervention methodology - Behaviour Change Wheel model - CRISSCROSS training places great emphasis on the acquisition of knowledge through practical exercises in real intervention contexts that challenge the trainees. Therefore, an important part of the practices will be to contrast in the field the validity of the theoretical approaches. Another key issue will be equipping participants with practical tools and specialized skills for intervention in nightlife spaces. In order to do so, we will recreate within a pedagogical framework the sequence of techniques and elements necessary to implement an intervention, including visiting nightlife venues. It is necessary that whoever implements this training carefully chooses the areas where the exercises will take place. The main criterion for the selection should be that the trainers have previously carried out interventions in that place, as it is important to be able to guide in nightlife spaces and provide tested tools to interact safely and enrich the learning process. It is also important to keep in mind that the practices must take place in safe spaces, and strictly avoid spaces where direct violence occurs on a regular basis. The intervention methodology assumes the Behaviour Change Wheel model proposed by Susan Michie et al (2011), who identify three elements necessary for change: ● A person's psychological and physical capacity to carry out a given behaviour or activity. ● The opportunity or social and physical factors that facilitate a specific behaviour. ● The motivation for the change, which would include both automatic processes related to emotions and impulses; and reflective processes related to planning and evaluating one's potential....
