AIM OF THE PROJECT<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEMBRACE! Embracing Diversity through Cultural Exchange\u201d is a Youth Exchange project designed by groups of young people based in the European Union (Italy, Spain and Portugal) and the Neighboring Partner countries (Armenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Georgia).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The project is born out of our concern that many young people in Europe lack opportunities and spaces to get involved and express themselves. Being different from mainstream societies, many are excluded and marginalized. The education system, family, the media and politics have developed certain patterns of our behavior: fear of uncertainty, being judgmental, rejecting the unknown and excluding differences. These are patterns that are often strongly connected to our societal habits and, therefore, can be changed. This is why we as young people from different parts of Europe have developed this project, learning and sharing how to implement a culture of diversity in our daily environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This Youth Exchange has been designed for young people so that they can incorporate diversity awareness and behavior in their daily lives. The Youth Exchange has the following main objectives:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
PARTICIPANTS PROFILE<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Youth Exchange is intended for 30 young people aged 16-25 who are ready to learn and share on the topics of diversity, inclusion and anti-discrimination and act both at national and the European levels. The Exchange targets mainly young people to equip them with knowledge, skills, and attitudes on the topic. Despite of the fields and walks of life where the young people come from, in order to be selected they should have a motivation to improve their understanding of diversity and different cultures and have a feeling that it is relevant and important in their lives<\/p>\n\n\n\n
