The project “Insights Through Exchange” is an international project, which will take place in Yerevan, where youth of Greece, Armenia, Italy, Russian Federation, will meet to discuss cultural diversity, regional traditions, stereotypes and use this knowledge to implement local projects in their society.

General Description

Our aim is to promote tolerance, respect and mutual understanding through artistic expression of cultural, religious, ethnic diversity between youth from different countries. During the project’s days, youth from 4 countries will work together. They will be trained on the following topics: democratic values and mutual understanding; to respect differences, breaking of stereotypes and networking;

Participants will work into an multinational team, on a street theater performance. They will jointly prepare the scenario for the theater play, based upon the subject of local traditions and tolerance awareness.

Through theater and music, arts which express traditions and roots of a particular region, but also contemporary trends, the project aims to raise awareness of young people that “cultural differences” and “inter-cultural dialogue” are not abstract concepts but events in which they participate and benefit from and may use them to develop their local community.

Using their own talents, skills and creativity together they need to find a common point between divergent European countries. Additionally, participants will show the recorded performance back in their home countries to their local community.

Our goals are:
1. Cross-cultural learning and dialogue between the participants from different countries, with a view to promoting mutual understanding and tolerance;
2. To increase youngsters ‘knowledge about different culture/history/religion;
3. Development of creativity and involvement of young people in civil life through promoting “Erasmus+” opportunities among them;
4. To unite youngsters from different background, nations and culture;
5. To learn how to respect each opinion and break stereotypes through conducting of evaluation and discussion with young people from other countries;
6. To promote good neighborly relations between the EU Members and neighboring countries, as well as to provide space for friendship and relationship through art and culture.

Youth exchange will help selected participants to realize how much beneficial for themselves and their local communities, will be to develop their own interests and creativity. Life offers a world of opportunities for personal development and fulfillment, to make one’s life more colorful and meaningful, with positive effects not only for them, but also for their communities.
