Project objective – to foster young people’s intercultural understanding, curiosity and openness, to reduce stereotypes, to develop creativity and the ability to respect the traditions and cultural features of other countries. We aim to provide young people from different countries with the opportunity to experience how cultural diversity enriches their personal growth and helps to build meaningful dialogue. Through the project we seek to: • introduce young people to the cultures, traditions, and everyday life aspects of various European countries through practical, creative activities; • encourage young people to explore food culture as an essential element of cultural identity, by trying new tastes and dishes; • analyse stereotypes and prejudices about other countries, while learning to recognise and reduce them; • develop participants’ intercultural understanding, empathy, curiosity, and respect for the traditions of other cultures; • create opportunities for participants to share their experiences and disseminate results within their communities, thereby contributing to broader youth inclusion and the promotion of international cooperation. With this project, we aim not only to strengthen participants’ competences but also to inspire them to become active members of the European community – young people who can value diversity, find common ground, and build meaningful connections with people from other cultures.
