Make use of Youth in Action

Booklets and Posters explaining the programme, translated for minority communities to have better access to opportunities.

Background to this project

In April 2008 the National Agencies from Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, the United Kingdom and the SALTO Cultural Diversity Resource Centre held the ‘Cross-Community Training Course’. From this process there was a need for better direct communication to minority commmunities.

Aim

The SALTO Culture Diversity aims to increase the use of the European Youth in Action programme in the work with an ethnic-minority in Europe.

Inside of ‘intercultural dialogue’ folder produced by Salto Cultural Diversity we want to create leaflets to support youth work with ethnic minorities. We would like to give the same opportunities for all minority culture in Europe so that they could apply for and participate in national and international level projects within the Youth in Action Programme. In order to achieve the aims laid down by the strategy the SALTO Cultural Diversity Resource Centre developed posters and brochures with general information that might be useful.

Objectives

In order to reach this aim, SALTO Cultural Diversity put forward the following objectives for its Leaflets in Minority Language:

• Multiplying Youth in Action programme for the new ethnic-minority users to work in local and international level with youngsters in a different background.
