Objectives

In a period of strong exacerbation of policies for welcoming migratory flows, the main objective of the project is to promote intercultural dialogue and social inclusion for young people in situation of fragility. This requirement was detected by the young promoters of the project and the alliance of partners is oriented to enhance the different point of views about intercultural dilogue and immigration’s issues. The project involves organizations based in Italy, Malta, Greece, Croatia, Romania and Estonia. The first four are overlooking on Mediterreanean Sea and knows the phenomenon of migration and of illegal vessels. Romania, instead, knew the fact as active part cause is affected by outflows. Together with the abovementioned problems it is found that young people living in rural and remote areas have less opportunities for personal and professional growth in comparison with own aged resident in urban centres. Finally, Estonia, where immigration is not felt so strongly and is foreign to direct migration, refugees are not a priority. The project aims to give to the participants an unpreceded opportunity to live up to their artistic potential through making a comic book. On the basis of recognised issues we have defined these objectives: 1. Promote intercultural and interreligious dialogue, the valuees of freedom and tolerance and the respect of human rights encouraging, by non formal activities, critical thought of young people. 2. Increase awareness of young people about immigration issues and focus on the necessity of social inclusion for migrants and asylum seekers and refugees. 3. Upgrade artistic and professional skills of the participants by the peer learning.
