• To define which groups are disadvantaged in society and identify the reasons why they face cultural disadvantages.
• To define stereotypes and prejudices and to understand to what extent these are influenced by culture.
• To define whether People with Disabilities, Refugees and Roma people can be classified as a socially disadvantaged group and if so the reasons why and what cultural disadvantages do they face.
• To raise awareness on the cultural differences that exist between different European countries and to what extent this impacts the minorities’ socially inclusion or exclusion in different societies.
• To find sustainable solutions in order to promote social inclusion of discriminated minorities such as People with Disabilities, Refugees and Roma people by raising awareness on stereotypes and prejudice.
• To involve participants in coming up with new ideas for projects that aim to strengthen solidarity, democracy, and friendship between youth and to limit and battle marginalisation of disadvantaged groups in a local, national and international level.
