Youth Power
Date du début: 17 juin 2014, Date de fin: 16 déc. 2014 PROJET  TERMINÉ 

Dancing, Art, Music and a creative approach to learn about Europe and gain a vast range of new skills. "Youth Power" is a youth exchange which will bring together 30 participants and 6 youth/social workers of Torpoint Youth Project and Arbeiterkammer Tirol. The activity will take place at Seehof, which is a the educational centre of the Arbeiterkammer. This youth exchange is focused on a very particular group of young people: keen and open to share on youth culture but who never travelled, low educational level, school drop outs who are unemployed or in risk of marginalization due to different factors. The objective of the project is to give the participants 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. Music and dance as two of many will let them discover that many borders are existing in minds, but reality is much more common. With this topic "Youth Culture" we would expect youngsters animated who are most probably not participating in any European programme. For this reason we include dance and music as a "Catcher". Nevertheless we will go very deep into what is culture, society and participating in society. This cultural exchange will provide them with new knowledge, ideas and skills, using dancing, music, visits and intercultural activities. In this way the participants will have fun but also learn together. They will break down their barriers and prejudices owards others.They willl have the chance to "smell the international air" and understand differences and similarities of history and culture in Europe. Above all, they will have fun, and end up with more tolerance for their own society but also with an appetite for more European opportunities in future. This project focuses on people who face exclusion due to different factors (health, education, economic situation, social reality). This project will be youth led, but opportunities will be provided for the young people to develop their skills – such as modern dance and sound mixing – alongside workshops based around Culture, Inclusion and Diversity.
