Objectives

With this project, we want to give other young people a boost so that they can understand each other better and get better involved in development and initiatives on this important social topic. The project aims to empower young people by adopting intercultural knowledge, creating and expanding the space for intercultural dialogue and raising the dialogue on an international level. The project offers a safe and open space for a dignified exchange of views between individuals. A group of youngsters with different ethnic, cultural, religious and linguistic backgrounds will meet and learn about cultural heritage with a common understanding and appreciation. An interesting aspect of the exchange is to notice which dances and elements are similar, which testifies to how much we are connected, and this project seeks to explore this in depth. All this teaches us to accept, respect and celebrate the differences that make our Europe unique. The project is directly related to the objectives of the Erasmus + program: Increasing participants' awareness and understanding of other cultures by offering them the opportunity to build networks of international contacts, motivating them to participate actively in society and to develop a sense of European citizenship and identity. Main objective of the project is: To encourage intercultural understanding within young people through working on the competencies needed for practicing intercultural dialogue. Specific objectives of the project are: 1. Creating a space for sharing ideas, views and opinions with young people from different cultures 2. Learning about cultural diversity and different approaches to evaluating culture through traditions and dance 3. Encouraging and practicing intercultural dialogue and understanding of intercultural relations 4. Uniting young people through research and learning about diversity and similarities 5. Giving opportunities and support to young people to acquire the writing and organizing skills of Erasmus + project 6. Giving space to young people for dialogue with young people from different cultural backgrounds 7. Informing about non-formal learning opportunities through the Erasmus + and ESC programs.
