"Youth Activism in Multicultural Society"

About the project:

Our overall goal is to create youth leadership network in cross-border region (Struga – Pogradec). Students from the cross-border region meet during the months of February, March and April on joint workshops and discuss various topics, spend informal time together and make new friends.

Timeframe:

February 2013 - April 2013

Partners:

"D-r Ibrahim Temo" - Struga

"Muharem Collaku" - Pogradec.

Goals:

To bring together young people from different religious, social and ethnic backgrounds, and help them see the advantages of growing up in a multicultural setting rather than seeing the other cultures as a threat
To provide a unique life-skills training program that will teach and inspire young people to take responsibility for their own lives and become positive role models in their communities regarding working and living peacefully with other ethnicities
To establish connections between youth in both countries
