Refugees and racism in EU context

This strategical project is aiming to change the present mentality in regard with refugees of youngsters from our local community. In order to do so, we plan to change some of the misconceptions European youngsters have about Muslim refugees living in Europe, to inform them about the reality of refugees’ lives and to influence their actions towards helping refugees.
Moreover, the project aims also to empower and help youngsters develop. The project will be developed and implemented by youngsters, our role (of organizations’ members) will be to guide and help them get the results they want.
How we plan to achieve all this?
Throughout communication and education – we will create 6 episodes and one documentary about refugees and also have workshops with middle school and high school youngsters. Through partnerships with local media and schools we hope to succeed in implementing this project.
