This international creative and awareness-raising youth exchange creates a space of sharing knowledge, raising awareness and creativity for 36 young Roma and non-Roma from 6 European countries (Germany, Macedonia, Romania, Lithuania, Bulgaria and Serbia) with a special focus to strengthen the understanding of the Roma genocide during WW II among Roma and non-Roma youth in Europe and the Balkans. During 6 days the young people will create their own stories and visions of empowerment and understandings based on their own experiences of discrimination and social inclusion and through a wide range of creative and artistic actions and work together as a team. The project beside raising awareness about the Roma genocide during WWII through creative methods, aims to strengthen the intercultural dialogue between Roma and non-Roma youth, as well as to support the long-term cooperation and exchange between Roma and non-Roma Youth organizations. Following the experience and expertise of Amaro Foro in the topic, the project is based on a well developed process-oriented and inclusive approach in which the participants are the ones who shape the final product according to their ideas, which they will realize during the first 3-4 days. The product will be organized actions and flash-mob that will be presented to a broader audience in Berlin. Our project wants to raise the self-awareness and self-esteem of the young people, give them the capacity to express themselves and empower them to get engaged in society and make their voices heard. Art and theater are a low threshold means for involving young people with fewer opportunities which can stimulate them to involve in further activities. Art action is more than a tool! This project promotes a positive image of Roma as active citizens and is dedicated to strengthen trust, mutual respect and joint engagement of young Roma and non-Roma. This project will not only increase the knowledge and sensitivity of the young Europeans on the topics of Human Rights, Roma Genocide and Antigypsyism, but the increased awareness of the young Roma and non-Roma can strengthen the consciousness of the participants about their role and responsibility within their communities, the society and in Europe at large. This project intents to investigate the horrible story of the Genocide during WWII in Europe and the Balkans, but also the aftermath and the path for recognition of the Roma genocide by the European parliament on April 15, 2015 with a resolution (2015/2615(RSP)). A special attention will be given to the conditions before and during the time of National-socialism in Germany, the extermination camps such as Auschwitz, Buchenwald, but also the genocide of the Romanian Roma in Transnistria, the massacre of Roma in Serbia, which was praised by the Nazis as most efficient, killing 90% of the Roma population at that time and the suffering of Roma and Jews in Lithuania and Bulgaria as well as the aftermath of what happened after the end of WWII, after the fall of the Iron curtain and the establishment of modern Europe and its institutions dedicated to ensure the rule of law, democracy and human rights. This year marks the 75 year anniversary of the Roma Genocide, thus the importance of building up the knowledge of young people, creating a common narrative of remembrance and holocaust education and commemoration. We want to empower young people to take a voice to defend their Human Rights and to develop strategies to overcome exclusion and discrimination. This project aims to strengthen the identity and self-esteem, the intercultural dialogue, the active European Citizenship and joint engagement of young Roma and non-Roma to challenge stereotypes and racism through an international youth exchange involving creative and artistic tools of non-formal education.
