SUMMARY
The DISCOVER THE EUROPEAN COMMON STORY!” Project was held between 12 – 19 September 2014. It is a multilateral youth exchange with the aim of improving the knowledge and skills of the young participants and youth workers with information about the subject of the project.
In this case, the project aims to develop cultural understanding, initiative and entrepreneurship.
With that goal, the project involved a total of 30 people (5 participants between the age of 18-25 + 1 leader, no age limit) from 5 different countries. Throughout the project, were developed activities jointly with the partners in order to exchange experiences on the subject while doing games and developing group dynamics. All of the participating groups and participants acquired new puppet techniques, tactics and strategies in general, and developed information dissemination elements to create a multiplier effect by young people once they return to their place of origin.
The language of the project was English.
