Objectives

We want to implement this project because unfortunately the idea of ​​united Europe still does not cover all European countries. Thus, some spaces and areas outside the EU are slightly "exotic" for its young citizens, and therefore also slightly less available. What is more, the youth from the other side of the border living outside the EU, due to visa regimes, economic and social differences, unfortunately has difficult contact with their peers from EU countries. Social studies and humanities show that only through interpersonal contacts and direct interactions individuals are able to overcome mutual prejudices and stereotypes. The project has the following objectives: - personal development of young people, development of intercultural competences, overcoming language barriers and acquiring the skills of intercultural cooperation and team work, as well as acquiring the skills of public speaking - to get acquainted with the culture, tradition and history of south-eastern Poland and Transcarpathian Ukraine - familiarization and workshops with the "oral history" method allowing to learn about the local micro-history from the perspective of the inhabitants explored as part of the project of the town - to get young people acquainted with the natural and cultural heritage of the Eastern Carpathians in Transcarpathian region - to promote international cooperation and the Erasmus Plus program - to develope creativity and the ability to work with new technologies among young people
