Stories of you(th) life

Project start date: February 08, 2020

Long term training course aiming to promote inclusion, tolerance and mutual understanding , fighting racism and stereotyping whilst contributing to the integration of migrants and refugees through storytelling and creative youth work methods.

The overall aim of this project is to develop and promote a new positive narrative of inclusion through creative and innovative youth work activities. The project will train youth workers and youth leaders giving the chance to young Europeans and young refugees and migrants to meet and share and explore their stories in order to match them with the needs of the communities they live in.

  • 1st training course: 08-16 February 2020, Manchester, UK
  • 2nd training course: November -December 2020, tbc, Sfantu Gheorghe/ Sepsiszentgyörgy, Romania

As a results of this training, we foresee to realise a final publication in which thoughts, reflections & stories of migrations developed as “modern fairy-tales” will be presented. The publication will also promote the concept of “community match”, defined as the opportunity to match the stories, skills and knowledge of the migrants with the needs and opportunities of the community they live in.
