This Youth Exchange will take place from the 4th to 12th February, duration of eight days, including the arrival day and the departure day. During the exchange non-formal education methods will be used and the active participation of the youngsters will be required. Dance, music and Art Workshops and dynamics will be held where the participants will interact and develop personal and social skills.

During the program there will be discussion activities, aiming to increase knowledge and practice in fighting intolerance as well as the exchange of experiences. Besides that all the partners will be invited to organize four activities which will be included to the program that will be participative and illustrative of their own culture.

For the activities program we will open a debate with our partners in order to construct it in a more participative way, giving answers to all the expectations and taking advantage of all the competences.

A Flash Mob about the theme will be organized and performed in the last days of the programme so all of you are also invited to give your own ideas. It will be used later on as results dissemination and also to approach the local community, media and other stakeholders to this kind of projects and themes.
