Project report:
Welcome to the world full of happy people, fun, friendship and honesty. It was my pleasure to travel to Romania (Moneasa) on the 12th May. We were really excited about the project „Thematic Awareness Training: Peers for Integration“ that ended on the 21st May.
There were people from: the Czech Republic, the Slovak Republic, Romania, Spain, Macedonia, Serbia, Island and from the hosting country: Romania. Thanks to the perfect preparation and organization of our leaders – Andrei and Corina we were able to create a wonderful team without any single mistake! During a lot of activities we got to know each other better and better and thanks to many group works, we were able to cooperate quite easily. We were dealing with innovative integration approach based on a peer education
methodology. To prevent intolerance among youth becaming themselves the „theachers“ of their peers.
Moreover, we experienced quite a lot from Romanian culture, great Romanian food, drinks and we had a lot of opportunities to explore the city of Moneasa on the Day of the city.
Considering it all, this project had something special in itself. Everything was so calm, pretty and amazing, like somewhere in the dream. What is glorious is the cooperation between nations can support process of cultural adaptation and reducing the discrimination. Intolerance is more emotional than racional, often driven by fear and lack of knowledge. Every individual can do something to make the situation better. For all of us this was only the beginning. Now, when we are back home,e can try to realize our ideas and be happy if any of them will come true. We can start with creating a lot of beautiful things or we can use education as the most powerful weapon to change the world. Everything is up to us!
To sum it up, if there is no EYCB as the great group allowing a lot of people to do amazing things EYCB would have to be invented! Thank a lot every single person allowing these projects to happen!
