The objectives were: - To create a safe learning space for a nature experience for 16 young people from 4 different countries. - To educate young people in traditional and ecological handcraft and to repair/build walls as an inter-cultural cooperation project. - To support the inter-cultural learning between young people from the participating European and Middle Eastern countries. - To bring down culture and religion-based stereotypes and fight xenophobia among young people - To create a space of sharing experiences with walls in conflict areas. - To be physically active through outdoor activities. -To participate in the preparation and cooking of food and cleaning of the accommodation. For the fourth time (after a long covid break), sixteen young people (part-funded through the Erasmus+ programme) from Ireland, Northern Ireland, Israel and Palestine (plus four young people from Switzerland who were funded separately by the Swiss government) came together for an 9 day residential youth exchange in the Eco Kibbutz Lotan in the Negev desert in Israel to contribute to the building of community facilities in the Eco centre and Village at the kibbutz (using eco techniques) and engage in intercultural workshops as an inter-cultural and environmental youth exchange project called 'Building Walls Breaking Walls'. Once again, Mahon Project Project Ltd. were the Irish applicant and hosting organisation for this youth exchange.
