Objectives

The idea of this project was born naturally, following informal discussions, after the president of the Asociacion music group participated in a lot of cultural movements, concerts all around the world. Seeking the beauties of each country they have visited, the promotion made by each local administrative, made he wish to envolve the youngsters in the project of promoting their country, as it is, with goods and bads. The youngsters think that some people are afraid of what is new and different, and have little compassion for peers who have not enjoyed the same opportunities of intellectual, material or any other kind of development. In this sense, we seek to change this kind of mentality by including those excluded on the grounds of ethnicity, social status, culture or geographical origin. Through this project we want to facilitate access of young people with fewer opportunities from ethnic minorities, people with reduced financial possibilities and with less international experience to actions that help them capitalize on their skills and abilities in order raise awareness of these issues. Also, interpersonal communication that takes place during non-formal and informal activities makes it possible to break the barriers between individuals and to give up on the prejudgments generated by a conservative society, thus leading to changing attitudes towards others. The main objective of this project is the training of 36 young people ( 6 leaders and 30 participants-from each country will participate 5 youngsters and 1 leader) with skills and competencies in the field of promotion campaigns. The objectives of this project are: - development of audio-visual skills of 36 young people from 6 European countries during the project; - to teach the 36 young people to learn how to create TV, radio and short film shows during the project; - to promote tolerance, understanding and acceptance in the 6 communities where the young people come from during the project - to increase the degree of knowledge and understanding of the 36 young people related to the realities that the roma face during this project - to increase the self-esteem of the 36 young people during the project. Each specific objective of the project is assigned to activities described in the program of activities, which have the role to lead to their fulfillment, specifically and to the meaning of all. Our project contributes to the achievement of the objectives of the Erasmus + program by involving, in particular, young people with reduced opportunities (social difficulties: young people discriminated against on ethnic grounds, young people from disorganized families; economic difficulties: low incomes, lack of work, dependents of social incomes ; geographical difficulties: they come from rural areas and peripheral urban areas; educational difficulties - young people who dropped out of school / low qualifications; cultural differences - young Roma), diversification of non-formal education strategies; development of skills, knowledge and skills of young people from rural / urban peripheral environment; learning certification by granting Youthpass certificates. Regarding the European objectives and priorities in the national context, the project promotes social inclusion, diversity, equality and non-discrimination, active citizenship, intercultural dialogue, through educational mobility for young people.
