This project experience initiate other youth exchange projects in cooperation with these and other organizations. Local youngsters who participated in project activities met young people from other countries and became more brave and encouraged to participate in youth exchanges in other countries. Project was great opportunity for them to meet foreigners in their local environment to communicate in English and take part in common activities. This experience broke stereotypes that young people in other countries are different. We distributed project results which give possibility to wider society in different countries to learn more about project and participants achievements and give great example how youngsters can be active and give their voice in different ways. The toolkit of creative methods for youth active participation can be helpful material for youth workers and youth leaders. Jauniešu apmaiņas projekta „Dance for Peace” mērķis bija nodrošināt iespēju jauniešiem, no dažādām valstīm ar dažādām pieredzēm izteikt savu redzējumu un attieksmi pret mieru un toleranci, izmantojot radošas metodes tādas kā deja, māksla un mūzika. Projekts veicināja neformālās mācīšanās principus, sniedzot jauniešiem iespēju strādāt kopā pie savām idejām, uzņemties iniciatīvu un atbildību un attīstīt savas kompetences. Projekts jauniešiem sniedza iespēju piedzīvot starpkultūru mācīšanos un būt sadzirdētiem starp citiem jauniešiem un vietējā sabiedrībā. Jaunieši attīstīja prasmes strādāt kopā starptautiskā komandā, uzņemties iniciatīvu, atbildību, lēmumus un īstenot savas idejas. Projekts veicināja jauniešu izpratni, ka aktīva pilsonība un jauniešu iniciatīva var būt izteikta dažādos veidos ar dažādām metodēm.
