Incels (a basic introduction to this subculture)

This practical session is designed to help youth workers understand the growing online subculture of ‘incels’ (involuntary celibates). We’ll explore key language, terminology, archetypes, and related ideologies, using real-world scenarios to bring the issue to life. The workshop includes advice on spotting concerns, supporting young people, and building resilience against harmful narratives. There’s space for open discussion, Q&A, and access to further resources to support ongoing learning.
