Objectives

The development of inclusive culture has an important impact on the innovative transformation of our European society, which enriches us all and enhances the diversity of our cultural landscape. Culture for all! means full access to cultural youth education measures and openness to all interested people. Inclusive and well established international, european youth work offers the chance to convey common worlds of experience. Dealing with diversity is already practice in many programs, projects and measures. Overall, however, there is still too little access for people with disabilities to international experiences in heterogeneous youth groups. There are many reasons for this: Project leaders and youth work professionals may have doubts or fears of responsibilities concerning an unknown sector. Or the adolescents are confronted with barriers that prevent them from participating in a measure. However, the focus of inclusive project planning in culture sector (music, art, theater, dance, etc.) could be varied and full of interesting encounters and are based on the interests of the young target group itself. Above all, there will be used innovative methodological approaches and formats of international inclusive youth work. The focus lies on: non-formal expertise and multicultural communication with heterogeneous groups, inter-culturality, experiential learning, democratic participation and non-formal education.
