“Feel the Art, feel yourself Youth Exchange Project" Numancia de la Sagra. This is a village of 4,000 inhabitants which is located in the North of the region of Toledo (near to Madrid). For the development of the project, wo have the use of the village council´s installations of Numancia de la Sagra. Furthermore, we will make a visit to Madrid and another visit to Toledo 25 youngsters and 4 youth leaders from Spain and Finland will participate in “Feel the Art, feel yourself Youth Exchange Project”: 10 youngsters from Finland with their 2 youth leaders, together with 13 youngsters from Spain with also 2 youth leaders. The youngsters selected for this exchange are already very committed people in both local communities, Numancia de La Sagra (Spain) and Rautjärvi (Finland) and also in the activities of both partners organizations: Proyecto Kieu and the Youth House of Rautjärvi Town Council. Both groups of youngsters, for different background or geographical circumstances are people with fewer opportunities. The project aims to work out about the sensation, usual among youngsters nowadays that “there is no future”. From that passive state of mind this project would contribute to move them towards a much motivated spirit and eventually to participate actively in our society for making a change. The project will encourage the participants to discover themselves through arts and foster their creativity and to help them realize that their future lies in their own hands: only they themselves can make a change in their own lives. In contact with other countries of Europe they improve their language skills, because the project communication language will be English. Furthermore there will be activities about teaching their own language, Finish and Spanish. The Project will take place between the 6th of July 2014 and the 13th of July 2014 and will involve two European countries, Spain and Finland and the participation of 29 persons in total. The planed activities are the following: - Creative Workshops (like the expression of emotions by drawing, singing and photography, theatre, open air activities, games, team works…) - Cultural Workshops (Visits to Toledo and Madrid) - Sport activities ( Games in the swimming pool, football, tennis and beach volleyball matches) The methodological frame of the workshops will be sharing: living, experiences, learning, evaluations, likes, emotions, friendship… And the youngsters will be in charge of carrying out with every activity included in the program. They will take care about everyone to be integrated, and all the materials ready for action. The main task of youth leaders would be to supervise the whole process and make the necessary adjustments in order to create a safe atmosphere for the youngsters to develop their own-selves. After the realization of this project, all of the youngsters will write the Youthpass, including into it the conclusions and the final evaluation results. The Youthpass is a learning tool where the youngsters can trace what they did and what they learned during the exchange. The youngsters will evaluate themselves, their actitudes, their participation and also their abilities to communicate in English. During the activity the youngsters will have the opportunity to communicate in English, Spanish and Finnish. Proyecto Kieu will share the results and the achievements of the project in our website (www.proyectokieu.es). Along the project, the participants will make posts and upload the pictures that they want to share with their families in PK’s blog and Facebook. And also the city hall of Numancia will publish the links of these posts in its own website. Proyecto Kieu has also a large number of contacts in local and regional media which will be informed about the project to make possible for the initiative to appear in local, and regional TV and newspapers. Currently, Proyecto Kieu is beginning a local radio station thanks to the funds granted by YiA Youth Initiative that we presented last year. Trough this radio station, we will promote “Feel the Art, feel yourself” Youth Exchange and all its planned activities. During the project days we will have a special program in our radio including interviews with the participants in where they can express their impressions, feelings and learning outcomes. The long-term results that we expect with this project are much more motivated and encouraged youngsters towards multilingualism; young people able to improve their decision-making skills and self-esteem by themselves. Youngster groups that regularly use emotional tools for daily conflict managemen and independence development. And finally, but not less important, this project will strength the relation between the two promoter organizations, which already work together since several years ago, and it will make possible new Youth Initiatives in the future, exploring the possibilities of Erasmus+, such us Transnational Initiatives
