Summary:
The aims of inter-national youth encounters are often defined as providing young people the opportunity to get to know to other countries, societies and cultures. This way the participant will be given the chance to learn about the “other”, but also more about himself/herself. Yet the concept of intercultural learning too much applies to the idea of one existing national culture, not considering the plurality and diversity of each country. Therefore the seminar not only aims to discuss the impact of migration, modernisation and globalisation on today’s societies but also wants to provide space for debating strategies of how to integrate those developments into the methods of international youth education. Further more international youth education should not only focus on creating solidarity and mutual understanding among youngsters from different nations but also should open the eyes of the youngsters for the diversity and plurality existing within their own country, realizing also the discrimination and social exclusion, that different members of their own countries societies are facing. Therefore international youth education should supply a platform for youngsters from different backgrounds to find out more about cultural diversity, to create a general sensibility, awareness and understanding among the people.
Main topics of the seminar will be:
- International youth education in an immigration society;
- Critical Analysis of existing concepts of culture;
- Plural societies;
- Can international youth organizations contribute to socially integration;
- Origin and impact of Stereotypes, prejudices and how to apply to them in a more dimensional pedagogical approach;
- Diversity Pedagogies;
- Anti-discrimination education.
Target group of the seminar:
Representatives of youth organisations that focus on international youth education (international youth exchanges, workcamps, volunteerservices etc.), Trainers, Multiplicators.
Country, where and when the seminar is going to be conducted:
The training will be hosted by European Centre for Economic and Policy Analysis and Activities (ECEPAA) in Modave (Belgium) in March 2012. All costs will be covered except for 30% of travel costs.
Working language: English.

SCADENZA: Before 15th of October 2011
