This mobility project will bring together 60 young people from 6 countries (Spain, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Slovenia, UK) for a 2 weeks International Youth Exchange under the theme “Offene Arme, offene Herzen - Young Europeans come together and show how to share”, from 25th June - 8th July 2016 in Hamburg and Sylt, Germany. The context is the refugee “crisis”, where millions of people are forced to leave their homes in Syria, Afghanistan, Somalia etc. fleeing war, persecution, discrimination and poverty. Seeking safety, freedom, Human Rights and better life conditions they cross international borders and seas to come to Europe. In this context the objectives are: to work with young people to develop an understanding of the refugee “crisis”, becoming pro-active and create a welcome climate and, on the other hand, increase their social and intercultural competences, with key competences in education and employability, enhancing their inclusion and participation in their communities.The participants are young people aged mainly between 16 and 25 years, coming from communities with fewer opportunities: Los Asperones comunidad gitana – a Roma Community in Málaga; Câmara de Lobos in Madeira; Chelas in Lisbon; Tavola Tonda in Palermo/Sicily; Maribor in Slovenia; from Page Moss/Walton/Speke in Liverpool; hosted by young people from St. Pauli in Hamburg. Three of the groups will have opened their hearts and arms already and have young refugees amongst them. Our young people are facing enormous political, economic and social challenges, but above all, they have an amazing potential for their empowerment, undiscovered creativity, social awareness and a willingness to open hearts, minds and arms…The Methodology will follow the principles of non-formal learning, ensure a high quality of non-formal and informal learning processes and offer space for playful interaction between the participants and encourage their exchange of experiences and insights.The Programme will be focused around the participants, who will represent their cities/projects and during the 2 weeks, present each a self-designed and organized workshop on the theme. These workshops will be at the creativity of each group and presented in varied ways resulting in a collection of experiences, examples, ideas and tools that can be multiplied, used and shared within their youth groups and communities, when they return home.We hope the impact of the 2 weeks will be, that the young participants will understand the need to challenge racism and xenophobia and be encouraged to get involved as active citizens, developing a Europe, where all people can live in peace.
