Objectives

The project was about social inclusions where youth would be integrated within the society with the use of digital technology, music, dance and use of social media to raise awareness among youth about hate speech, intolerances, stereotypes, prejudices and how to overcome some or all of these issues through European Values. The main idea was to change the perception among the youth using many techniques during face-to-face Youth Exchange (YEX). Hence the title of the project Road To The Change (RTTC) which aimed to change the attitude and behaviour among youth while enhancing their capacity to become more tolerant and accepting diversity. In order to get the youth to change their perceptions a number of methods were planned to be used which included: music, dance, photography and even art.
