PROJET
TERMINÉ
Your Culture My Culture Our Culture is a youth exchange which brought together 30 participants and 4 youth/social workers of Point Europa and Arbeiterkammer Tirol. The youth exchange was realized twice due to the high demand from young people with fewer opprotunities, on the other hand we are aware from previous experience that smaller exchanges can stimulate individual needs and specifics.
This youth exchange focused on a very particular group of young people: keen and open to share on youth culture but who have maybe never travelled, have low educational level, or are at risk of marginalization due to different factors. Within the two groups in this project we guaranteed a high quality for the participants. The objective of the project was to provide the participants with the understanding, that countries, cultures and realities may be different due to different facts (religion, language, economy, social life and values) but that young people are united obviously through a common Europe but much more through to a similar youth culture. Through the similarities within youth culture we encouraged them to discover that many borders are existing in minds, but reality is much more open and diverse.
With this topic "Youth Culture" we saw youngsters become more animated and opened their eyes to being part of Europe and this had an added value with regards to their families and parents who were not themselves participating in any European programme.
Our aim was to go very deep into what is "my reality", and what is culture, society and participating in society.
This cultural exchange provided them with with a unforgetable and life influencing experience. It offered new knowledge, ideas and skills, using music, visits and intercultural activities. In this way the participants had fun but also learned together. They broke down their barriers and prejudices towards others. They had the chance to "smell the international air" and understand differences and similarities of history and culture in Europe. Above all, they had fun, and ended up with more tolerance for their own society but also with an appetite for more European opportunities in the future.
This project focused on people who face exclusion due to different factors (health, education, economic situation, social reality).
This project was mainly youth led, but professionals made sure, that opportunities were provided for the young people to develop their skills. The programme is designed to reach the different aims and objectives in a logical, cool, and smooth way.
