Efforts to listen, understand and tolerate - essential values in a world where multiculturalism is increasingly present

From 24th of July to the 31st of August we took part of a Youth Exchange in Nistru with  groups of young people from different countries. There we participated to the project « EqualityIsFor Everyone » with 24 youngs aged 13 to 21 from  Macedonian, Spanish, Romanian and Finnish.

Gathered around the theme of equality and equity, we spent seven days together. The program was full of interesting and original activities (creative workshops, debates, role plays , cultural evenings, etc.), in a fantastic atmosphere and rich in our cultural diversity. Young Europeans also visited symbolic place such as the Communist Memorial in Sighetu Marmatiei.



We were also proposed to carry out a project to express ourselves about equality. We had two days to complete this task.  So, to achieve this goal, we decided to create different groups in order to express our vision  in a creative way.  All the groups were involved and the results were very convincing through: photography, video, drawing and a video game.

Faced with these cultural differences, tensions can arise, which, in order to resolve them, it encourage solidarity and encourage efforts to listen, understand and tolerate - essential values in a world where multiculturalism is increasingly present.
