insistant, ambitious demonstrations in front of the
Turkish National Agency’s door;)

project . Poland, Spain,Romania, Latvia and Estonia are called
partner promoters.
In connection with the Youth In Action priorities , with our project we will be aiming to encourage our youngsters to get involve in
the activities regarding : European citizenship
Active participation of young Cultural diversity
Inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities
We would like to create consciousness in youngsters’ mind about the “cultural degenerations”
and “all kinds of unhealthy life styles” by the way of activities
related to healthy living at the same time preserving cultural values and establishing tolerance to the other
cultures of Europe.
We will be focusing on ‘Traditional Dances’ as a tool to achieve our goals and we have already got the first part of it
till now by making them create films to teach a traditional dance to the pair country.
We would especially like to involve young people with
fewer socio-economic opportunities in this
exchange project to give them a chance to have, maybe, a unique experience in their
lives!
