"Euro-Chess Foundation” (ECF) organises an exchange in Valkenburg aan de Geul between youngsters from member states of the European Union. Sixty youngsters from seven different countries in Europe: Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Belgium and The Netherlands.Physically and/or visually handicapped or hearing-impaired and non-handicapped young people meet each other in a competitive and recreative participation in chess and other sports (for.inst. archery, electric wheelchair hockey, and darts, swimming, and Old Dutch games). Each country sends 2 youngsters without disability and 6 youngsters with a disability. The name of the exchange is “Euro-Chess 2016” and “Euro-Chess 2017” and the theme is ‘’Friends beyond borders’’.Besides these sports activities “Euro-Chess 2016”and “Euro-Chess 2017” provides in a number of intercultural activities and non-formal learning: the participants come into contact with the cultural heritage of the Netherlands (especially the triangle Maastricht-Luik-Aken or Euregio Maas-Rijn) and several traditions of our country such as its manners and the specific customs (for example the language, the food and drinks of our region). By means of acquaintance workshops, presentations of their own countries and daily activities and frequent evaluations the youngsters make contact with each other and their different customs. So they discover each other’s differences. They learn to accept each other; similarities and differences will be inserted constructively. So a process of growth will develop from orientation through acquaintances to result into further social contact.Finally the participants of the several countries will show the characteristics of their country through music, drama, film, culinary art, folk dance, photography and a powerpoint presentation.Before, during and after “Euro-Chess 2016” and “Euro-Chess 2017” different social media (twitter, facebook, flickr and youtube) will be used to get in contact with each others, to make the weekly program and to propose ideas and suggestions.
