We live in a society where migrations and the consequent encounter and clash among different cultures has become extremely relevant and shall be at the top of public stakeholders’ priorities. One of the biggest challenges for youth workers is to be equipped to face newly arrived youth, who may have experienced great distress and confront obstacles in adjusting to a new cultural environment. Promoting intercultural education and training intercultural competences becomes therefore crucial to manage the encounter and possible conflicts arising from cultural differences. Modelling empathic, critically-thinking and open minds contributes to shape welcoming environments, where cultural diversity is promoted and celebrated, and the first step towards bringing social change and inclusive societies. Participating in this course youth workers and education staff shared and discussed challenges, best practices and strategies to facing, acknowledging and celebrating interculturality an diversity The idea of the training course Y-EU-oth in Diversity" based on the following guiding principles: Every European citizen can contribute to make a place in Europe more attractive to live and thus practically to make Europe a more attractive place to live in. We, the project participants, are convinced that Europe can only be structured through shared commitment beyond the borders of any European country; because in terms of mobility and economic integration Europeans are closely connected and therefore they cannot afford to reduce their world to their own hometowns, as it is a matter of time that social problems in an EU member state affect the well-being in another one. Due to the fact that Erasmus+ prioritisation focuses on youth workers, we came into idea of implementing the following TC with the goal of delivering knowledge to youth workers who came from organisations that work directly with young people on how to promote diversity, intercultural and inter-religious dialogue, media knowledge, critical thinking and youth initiative, and strengthens youth workers' expertise and gives them methods for professional development, including digital youth work, as key priorities of Erasmus+ programme. Teams of people with and without disabilities, with and without migration background and with different social backgrounds were formed in rich and the poorest EU countries. All together they gathered experience in being active citizens and so they recognized social problems and found workable solutions in order to make European towns and cities a better place to live. Thus, they promoted the building of an inclusive Europe and created a public awareness of living the European values on local, regional and international level. The collaboration between participants was based on their mutual interests to make their environment more inclusive and livable so that everyone can feel comfortable and respectively participate fully in social life without restrictions. Especially for people in risk of discrimination, it is often difficult to feel belonging to a place and we wish that this would change! That is why this project gave these people the opportunity to help determine how a town or a city should look like, so that they can feel good residing it. Main objectives This course aimed to help youth workers to develop their cultural awareness while giving them the tools and new approaches to cater to a multicultural and ethnically diverse group of young people. Thanks to this course, the participants: -Confronted and understood the mechanisms behind head-on stereotypes and personal prejudices; -Improved their cultural awareness and intercultural competences; - Exchanged good practices, looked over achievements and learned more about the Inclusion & Diversity strategy. -Explored and value different points of view through simulation exercises and storytelling; -Learned new approaches to education that can be applied to culturally diverse groups; -Knew more about youth workers' role in the integration process of immigrant or foreign children; -Exchanged good practices and discussed challenges with fellow colleagues and the course trainers Social exclusion of young people is directly connected to unemployment and poverty. Personal or family problems, learning difficulties, conflicting dynamics, a difficult socio-economic situation are all factors that influence youth to be inactive citizens. Today is more than important to work on these factors to prevent and manage social exclusion, discriminations and conflicts. This training course aimed at getting to know strategies, methodologies and tools to include all youth in education and at learning how inclusive education works in Europe and how overcoming segregation of young people with special needs, diverse background and fewer opportunities is indeed possible. Also the TC focused on creating greater visibility for inclusion & diversity and building bridges between youth stakeholders.
