Project Summary

The main aim of this project is to foster solidarity in Europe, promoting raising awareness processes on the current refugees crisis.

The specific objectives of the project are:
• To raise awareness at local and European level about the current refugees crisis in Europe.
• To empower youth organisations, NGOs and CSOs from EU and Balkan region, offering them new tools based on art and creativity to boost their social interventions.
• To share among partner organisations best practices and experiences in youth work focused on dealing with cultural differences and promoting inclusion and solidarity.
• To promote new networking initiatives between EU and Balkan youth organisations, NGOs and CSOs, in order to create common answers to refugees’ crisis.
• To foster the role of youth work in EU and Balkan region in tackling relevant social issues at European level.

According with the objectives and priorities of the ERASMUS+ Programme, and especially of the KA2 Capacity Building in the field of youth, this project aims at:
• Fostering cooperation and exchanges in the field of youth between Programme Countries and Partner Countries from Balkan region;
• Improving the quality and recognition of youth work, non-formal learning and volunteering in Partner Countries (Balkan region), enhancing their synergies and complementarities with the society;
• Promoting transnational non-formal learning mobility between Programme and Partner Countries (Balkan region), targeting young people with fewer opportunities, improving participants’ level of competences and fostering their active participation in society.
This was an ERASMUS+ Programme Key Action 2 – Capacity Building project in the field of youth aimed at developing the competences of youth workers and staff of civil society organisations working with youth. The main topics tackled by the project were intercultural dialogue, social inclusion, and the use of creative tools and methods in youth work. The project had two main activities: a training course and an evaluation meeting. All the partners involved in the project had the experience or the interest in working with young people from disadvantaged backgrounds (unemployed, marginalised etc.) and an active interest in using creative tools in youth work (arts, theatre, street action etc.).
The project was structured in this way:
• A preparation phase in each country involved in the project;
• A training course held in Shkoder;
• A local phase in each country involved in the project;
• An Evaluation Meeting for representatives of all partner organisations;
• A dissemination phase in each country involved in the project
