The HIKE project was developed to promote cultural diversity and tolerance among European youth, addressing discrimination through an educational and intercultural exchange program. Thanks to the collaboration of six partner organizations, the initiative identified key social challenges related to marginalization and provided concrete tools to tackle them. The idea behind HIKE emerged in response to the rising incidents of discrimination and hate crimes in Europe, exacerbated by global events such as the Arab Spring, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Several countries, including Italy and Spain, recorded a significant increase in hate crimes, as reported by the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights (2020), while the European Social Survey (2018) highlighted a rise in gender-based discrimination, particularly in Hungary and Poland. The key objectives for the project are the following: -Training and Awareness: Through workshops and practical activities, participants acquired tools to promote social inclusion and combat discrimination in their communities. -Reflection on Minority Rights: The program encouraged greater awareness of the social and political rights of minorities within the European Union. -Intercultural Dialogue and Peaceful Coexistence: The project facilitated exchange and discussions to promote the value of different ethno-cultural traditions and reinforce mutual respect. -Integration of Migrants and Refugees: Participants engaged in discussions and activities aimed at understanding the challenges of integration in Europe. -Knowledge Dissemination: Project results were shared mainly through social media platforms such as Instagram and the websites of partner organizations, ensuring greater visibility and audience engagement. -Follow-up Activities: Participants developed post-event projects to strengthen the impact of the learning experience through local initiatives and further discussions beyond the exchange program. -Creation of Safe Spaces: HIKE fostered an environment free from discrimination and racism, allowing participants to express themselves and grow. -Building a Network of Activists: A group of young inclusion ambassadors was formed, ready to promote activities and respond to discrimination both in their communities and internationally. HIKE's impact did not end with the end of the Youth Exchange, but generated new synergies and collaborations among the partners involved, directly involving some of the participating youth in the development of new activities aimed at understanding the impact of digital on issues of inclusion and community.
