Wake up Europe!

Hodoš. Krásne, pokojné a tiché mestečko v Slovinsku. Miesto, kde sa stretli nielen ľudia z rôznych kútov Slovenska, ale aj Európy. Štyria Slováci, ľudia z Portugalska, Rumunska, Litvy, Slovinska, Maďarska a Estónska tu spolu boli na projekte Wake up Europe a každý deň sa zobúdzali do nového dobrodružstva.

Od 22.7. do 31.7. sme sa snažili viac otvoriť naše oči a zobudiť povedomie o aktuálnej problematike Európy. Prostredníctvom zaujímavých aktivít, workshopov a diskusií sme prehĺbili svoje vedomosti o diskriminácii, životnom prostredí, imigrantoch, LGBTQ komunite, ... Popri teoretickom vzdelávaní sme zažili veľa aj na vlastnej koži. Prvým centrom, ktoré sme navštívili bolo centrum pre bezdomovcov. Vďaka tejto návšteve sme sa dozvedeli viac o bežnom dni členov a práci zamestnancov. Druhým centrom bol domov dôchodcov, kde sme so starčekmi strávili pekné doobedie. Taktiež sme mohli nakuknúť do rómskej dedinky v blízkosti Murskej Soboty. Videli sme skutočných ľudí na skutočných miestach.

Okrem vzdelávania sme však zažili aj mnoho iného. Vďaka kultúrnym večerom sme sa mohli premiestniť do krajín ostatných účastníkov a vidieť aspoň kúsok z ich tradícií. Prestávky medzi workshopmi boli plné hier a zábavy a večery zas patrili kľudným rozhovorom.

Celý projekt sa niesol v príjemnej atmosfére a určite naň nikdy nezabudneme. Nikto by ani nečakal, že 10 dní ubehne tak rýchlo.

Organizátor projektu: Društvo Kreativne Mladine

The youth exchange will take place between the 22nd of July and the 31th of July 2022 in MURSKA SOBOTA (HODOŠ), Slovenia.

As part of a one-year project, we want to spread tolerance towards different minorities, bring young people closer to volunteering, to touch on the issues of inclusion of the LGBTQ+ community, the Roma community, the elderly population, homeless people, migrants, refugees, talk about racial discrimination, religious discrimination, sex discrimination and cultural diversity. We will include environmental protection in the use of everyday tasks and try to use green travel as much as possible. By getting to know vulnerable groups and through work actions, we want to spread tolerance towards minorities. By carrying out past projects, we have gained the experience that work actions and the direct involvement of young people are very useful for acquiring competences, experience and developing self-confidence and self-esteem of young people.
