It will focus on two aspects in particular: road safety and personal safety. The first is strictly related to youth cultures, including substance abuse (drugs and alcohol), while the second refers to how safety is perceived in European ci8es and deals with the issues of micro-crime and immigra8on. OTen the feeling of being unsafe prevails over the statistics, modifying this way the citizen's behaviour. Such changes are experienced in particular by women. Starting from these issues and on the occasion of the European Year of Equal Opportunities for All our association aims at promoting actions on the basis of initiatives and projects developed in the past. The project will be centred on the binary idea of Security and Safety and on its individual and social perception. During the exchange programme there will be several practical activities and meetings. The participants will exchange views over their different experiences in their home countries in order to identify "peer to peer" communication strategies on the issue of safety and some of its specifics.

Video, photos, drama, painting will be the instruments at disposal of the youngsters. They are asked to translate in images their idea of Europe. Throughout the eyes of who has born European and who is working hard to become it. The methodology is mainly centered on the participants resources. They can use their own language (not always made by words) in order to discover that there's not just "one" European identity. Figurative Art in all its forms is the right key to give voice to the participants' thoughts for sharing ideas and using the fantasy to create a common image of the concept of Europe.

The building has been abandoned for a long time, but a few years ago the local government and local community organisations worked on the building to restore it, in the hope of making it functional again for the inhabitants. In this project, using cultural and artistic activities, we want to involve ourselves in this recovery process in order to spend our free time in useful ways. For the organisation of the project, we are supported by an association local to Arce, called 'Al Frantoio', that will help us to find material to realise the project and promote it in the area, thanks to the great experience that this associa8on has acquired over the years.We believe that these artistic, and playful, activities constitute a fundamental basis from which to explore relationships between young people of different cultures, and the relationships that they develop with their surroundings and neighbourhoods. With this activity we want to promote a culture of pro-active citizenship in young people which they can then extend to their own communi8es.

La zona dove si vuole realizzare l'accoglienza è all'interno del Comune di Budoia, che non ha mai ospitato uno scambio multilaterale.

Il tema, legato al confronto dei giovani e alla valorizzazione delle diverse realtà culturali, nasce da una sempre più forte presenza di realtà culturali differen8 negli ul8mi anni e da un desiderio di apertura dei ragazzi verso altri coetanei. Nel progeJo, le persone sono viste come un uno caleidoscopio - pezzi colorati che formano una varietà infinita di forme e geometrie molto belle e vivaci. In quest'ottica ogni partner preparerà del materiale legato alla propria cultura, alle proprie tradizioni e soprattutto alle diverse culture giovanili presenti in Europa, come i diversi pezzi del caleidoscopio.

"Laboratori interculturali" in cui saranno gli stessi ragazzi a trovare le strategie di confronto e crescita - i leader svolgeranno funzioni di facilitatori - dove potranno cucinare assieme, proporre danze, momenti d'arte, creatività, musica ecc In questo modo i piccoli pezzi del caleidoscopio si assembleranno mano a mano. Ciascuno creerà un proprio caleidoscopio di colori, odori, strumenti, emozioni per conoscersi, conoscere e far conoscere la propria cultura agli altri e arrivare all'ul8mo giorno con un grande gruppo mul8culturale che realizzerà un caleidoscopio "vivente". Verrà dato spazio a ciascuno attraverso momenti aperti in cui danze, musiche, proiezioni renderanno lo scambio Pagina 46 di 261 coinvolgente per un apprendimento a 360° .Durante lo scambio verrà realizzata una giornata "aperta" all'intera comunità con associazioni locali e regionali dove sarà possibile dare corpo al concetto del caleidoscopio in Europa.

We want to focus our reflections about the "impossibility" to express: we feel that this society has developed many ways to "avoid" people to get expressed, to openly show toughts, identites and cultures. We'd like to work on these themes by practicing actively different ways to express and different ways to "be blocked in our expression". In the first part we'll create a good clima of work, and we'll ask every national group to offer to the others a day of artistic workshop, based on their own sector (music, painting, theater and so on). In the second part of the work we'll try, by realising some simulations and rule games, to experiment different situation of artistic censure. In the end we'll share feelings and opinions to see if there are possible ways to avoid the "un-expression".

The project wants to enrich the youth' capacity of dialoguing and interacting with different cultures. We aim to help them to overcome the too-much-spread-about attitude of looking at the "different from you" as a menace and not as an opportunity. In fact, together with uncertainty, people oTen close in themselves, thus loosing the ability to take the responsibility upon them.Through this exchange with groups of other European Countries, we would like to deepen the knowledge of the most significant aspects of one's own and, at the same time, other people's culture, so as to appreciate the beauty of variety. We want, in this way, let the youth be ready to face and, in case, to give their contribution to the problems linked to relationship between peoples of different cultures, religions and ethnic groups. This exchange will let them experience personally, "live", that the differences - that often provoke xenophobia, racism, violence, intolerance - may instead be opportunities for a cultural, political and social enrichment, also in view of the building of a Europe, united in the mul8plicity, that we wish.All the proposed activities have a strong participating style and, also through the methods, direct their efforts to reach the forecast aims. Some examples: a meeting with children coming from Africa and other geographic areas; an internet connection among the 4 Countries of the exchange and the young people of the organizations and groups remained in their cities, where they will promote a sportive day involving children and youth of various cultures, and so on.The working methods are also very ac8ve and comprehend: animation method, games, simulation, theatrical dramatization, dialogue within the groups, panel discussions, projecting of future actions, constant verification and evaluation of what is being worked out, avoiding as much as possible interven8on from the "stage".

It is better known as the " Serpentone", a district in itself, and over the years it is proof of a failure in urban planning because of the difficulty of the inhabitants to relate to its public spaces, which have been left to decay. Our project starts with the idea of realising a workshop of theatrical scenes with the inhabitants that will really grow from the spaces of Corviale, the objective being to stimulate the community to discover a new dialogue with the space through theatre. Starting with an analysis of social and collective problems, the inhabitants are encouraged to search for a solution, using theatre, which can be adopted in real life. We hope, moreover, that the project becomes a reproducible model for any city or community, taking off from the idea that "places that are today considered a waste of space and time might one day become spheres of social, cultural and playful interaction" (Stalker).

Per analizzare questi aspetti il gruppo si è posto come metodo quello di approfondire la conoscenza della situazione dei ROM, sia ripercorrendo la storia delle varie migrazioni nomadi, sia seguendo lo sviluppo della cultura e infine osservando le loro condizioni attuali in relazione all'inserimento nella società. Dopo una prima fase di preparazione formativa del gruppo, inizierà una fase più operativa nella quale intediamo entrare in contatto diretto con i membri delle diverse comunità ROM e con gli operatori che lavorano con loro. Questi momenti mirano a scoprire le motivazioni e le esperienze dirette di emarginazione di tutti i componenti delle comunità di etnia ROM, approfondendo in questo modo l'aspetto dei diritti a loro riconosciuti e allo stesso tempo negati. A questo proposito vogliamo entrare nel merito dell'espansione dei diritti per le famiglie ROM di provenienza romena, nell'ottica dell'allargamento dell'Unione Europea alla Romania.

This youth group lives in a very problematic district of the city where young people are living on the street and have no social life nor interac8on what so ever, other than deliquency. The area, aka Quar8ere Braida, has been often mentioned last year by local and national newspapers and tv news because of the dramatic situation there and the difficult life conditions people undergo. Quartiere Braida is characterized by a large number of extra EU ci8zens, therefore social inclusion and discrimina8on are a massive issue.A.S.D. Judo Club Sassuolo provides the venue for workshops about the theme of recycling. The theme will be developed throught practical activities that will teach the participants to use household waste material to make things and to play games. This is a nice way to give a chance to boys and girls of a different cultural and religious group to interact with the locals and to find a way to social inclusion in order to facilitate intercultural dialogue. As a matter of fact the project addresses to a minority group of citizens who are finding it rather hard to be included in local social life and live in a very disadvantaged condition with fewer opportuni8es, where danger oTen occurs as well.

Following a cultural process that from the bottom will develop to the top, it will be conduce also a research on the literature and on the European artists that faced the same themes at an international level to establish a connection between the memory of the territory and the European historical-artistic memory. This thing will allow to understand the principle of the identity of the European social values like the tolerance, the peace and the social equality. In particular, the authors of the European classic tradition together with the witnesses and the experiences lived by the citizens of the territory will be taken in consideration.

This situation is caused by stereotyping and misunderstandings which come mainly from the lack of communica8on and understanding between the two groups. This project will achieve two objec8ves: social inclusion of the migrant community into the local community and an improvement in the situation of young women from the migrant community. "Tales from hidden migration" consists of the creation of a book which will collect stories from migrant women who live in Palermo and who come from different countries and diverse cultures. In this way, we will be able to promote an intercultural understanding by giving the opportunity to express to a group often far away from the public sphere and in some ways 'invisible' to the public eye. This book will be written in Italian and translated into English and French in order to ensure that the stories collected reach many people. In addition, it will be dramatised by local street artists (the group will be gender balanced and will involve equal participation of migrant and local popula8on), so as to communicate these young women's stories to the local community.The youth group that will realise this project "Tales from hidden migration" is made up of people from CE.S.I.E who come from local and migrant communities. This gives us the chance to develop an intercultural dialogue within the group itself and to overcome social and cultural barriers.

The protagonists will be a group of youngsters and their coach, attending the "rehearsal room" at the Youth Centre of Virgilio (Mantova). Their objective is developing their initiative and responsibility, by managing directly the "rehearsal room" where different groups can practise and prepare their art /music/ dance performances.This place will be the backbone for the organisa8on of some ar8s8c and cultural workshops and events, conceived, planned and supervised by the young people for other youngsters and the whole community, where young people can make their voice heard.Finally, since this ac8on moves from the large scale project called JAMO (2006 - 3328 / 001 -001) we aim at involving youngsters with fewer opportunities, with cultural, social, economic and family difficulties, who can take the chance for expressing themselves through the most fiLngways.The coach will monitor the group, support their ideas, support the group in the contact with the Municipality, which owns the "rehearsal room", and guarantee the involvement of minors and disadvantaged par8cipants.

The aim of the project is to involve many villages of two districts around Pavia (Pavese and Oltrepò) in the development of artistic activities addressed to young people which will be held in differents places, but reachable by every participant through a system of transport predisposed on purpose. Our strategy is to create a network, which allows young people from different villages to draw together and to be integrated with the whole community. The activities, as the title underlines, will be linked to different arts (theatre, music, break dance, dance, visual arts, video and juggle) and chosen by the participants. There will be different groups, in different places, but always in touch with one another. There will be a period of preparation, in wich we'll meet young people of each village involved and we'll create the groups and the period of workshop, that will end with final products, such as performances, cds, dvds, exhibitions, ecc. Participants will be the direct authors of everything, with the help of the art operetors, in order to create autonomous planning, culturals and artistic skills all over the territory. The products will be diffused over the local territory and in other villages of Region Lombardia. This will allow us to make exchanges with similar youth initiatives. The project will be supported by many municipalities, at present 18, but they could increase in number, since we are waiting for other 20 municipalities decisions.

We think that, through prevention, we can give young people necessary tools to understand and to limit risks due to drug use. The strength of this project is that it is fully managed by young, so that we will be able to have an informal approach that will allow us to reach easily people of our same age and to give them informa8on and knowledge useful to save their health.New ways of using drugs show a contemporary assumption of different psychotropic substances: being part of the young world will make us able to understand and to work with greater aJen8on on these new ways.

Inoltre, per completare la ricostruzione dell'evento verranno ricreate situazioni analoghe attraverso fedeli ricostruzioni da parte di ragazzi-aJori. L'idea è nata da un gruppo informale di giovani, "Idra Uxentum", che, girovagando per i vari paesini pugliesi in cerca di nuove emozioni, hanno deciso di far rinascere con i pochi mezzi a disposizioni le proprie tradizioni culturali. Vivendo in un luogo dove le attività invernali sono assenti, si è deciso di raccontare come la gente di un tempo cercava nelle proprie tradizioni una giustificazione di vita, e magari di trovare un riscontro o raffrontare le proprie, con simili tradizioni Europee.

We are ex students of the Scuola di Cirko directed by Paolo Stratta in Grugliasco (Torino). The members of the group are linked by the passion for popular outdoor performances - that we creates ourselves - often working passing the hat. We work all over Italy as buskers but also collaborating with important national theatres. Now our main interest is to make our group bigger, involving other young people with similar aims but different backgrounds in a more ambitious project: the idea is to go in front of the audience using the power of communication of a comic/clown show to say something more important about the message. With other 4 young artists we want to create a show about the theme of "Diversity" to be performed in the streets and squares of Italy and hopefully in some theatres. We deeply want the audience to make some reflections in a funny way as we learnt from one of our big masters as Leo Bassi: a show without words for an international public that could talk about important values through the art of irony and smiling.

Priorità del gruppo è la creazione di un luogo di confronto, per i giovani di una realtà, quella cilentana, priva di iniziative valide di aggregazione e che si trova da tempo ormai in una situazione di disagio sociale ed economico. I giovani sono quindi chiamati a partecipare attivamente al progetto non solo nella fase di realizzazione del film ma anche durante la preparazione, l'organizzazione logistica e, quindi, l'evento crea8vo.Sfondo della ricerca sarà Acciaroli, piccolo paese sul mare in cui, si dice (ma non ci sono certezze), Ernest Hemingway trovò l'ispirazione per il suo capolavoro, appunto "Il vecchio e il mare". Il lavoro si svilupperà attorno alla alla figura di un vecchio pescatore, unico testimone ancora in vita del passaggio di Hemingway nel Cilento. Attraverso i suoi racconti il gruppo cercerà di ricostruire il rapporto che legò lo scrittore premio Nobel con i luoghi e le storie di pescatori isolati dal resto del mondo negli anni '40-'50. Proprio da questo partirà una ricerca sul rapporto tra uomo e natura in contrasto con l'abusivismo edilizio e il turismo d'assalto che sta lacerando la costa cilentana. Alcuni inserti di fiction sulla vita di Emingwey ad Acciaroli faranno da collante narrativo al nostro lavoro video che cercherà di fornire par8colari scorci della vita dei pescatori e del loro rapporto con il mare.

Il tema del progetto è l'indagine dello stereotipo della figura dello "zingaro", attraverso uno studio approfondito delle realtà rom e sinti presenti in diverse città venete. Esso prevede una ricerca teorica, attraverso libri, riviste, documentari, ma anche la conoscenza diretta di queste comunità, che verranno coinvolte attivamente utilizzando strumenti come la fotografia e il teatro che permettano a loro di esprimersi e autodefinirsi e a noi di avere un punto di vista diverso e non banale. L'obiettivo è quello di elaborare il materiale raccolto e realizzare uno spettacolo teatrale, un libro fotografico e una mostra, sfruttando le diverse competenze dei giovani partecipanti al progetto. "Rappresentazione al Limite" si propone di utilizzare la cultura come mezzo privilegiato per il superamento dei pregiudizi che portano al razzismo e all'emarginazione sociale, valorizzando la ricchezza culturale di queste comunità diffuse in tutta Europa da generazioni. Fondamentale è la possibilità data a giovani registi, drammaturghi, attori, costumisti, scenografi, fotografi e grafici di riappropiarsi di uno spazio culturale troppo spesso precluso alle nuove generazioni, permettendo così lo sviluppo di una cittadinanza aLva e consapevole.The main theme of the project is the role of the "Gipsy" in our immagina8on. The project wants to research about the sterotypes on gipsy people. It is composed by a period of research which lasts three months and then, the production of three art espressions: an exposition, a book and a theatre show. The research is to be done not by conventional ways like interview or reportage but with ac8vi8es and games made by arts, theatre and photography.

Applicant: Regione Lombardia - Direzione Generale Giovani, Sport, Promozione Attiv Applicant Address: Via Rosellini, 17 Applicant Postal Code: 20124 Applicant Town: Milano Applicant Country: Italy First Theme: Second Theme: Project Description: The project, lead by the Region of Lombardy, aims at strengthening the participation of young people to the decision-making processes implemented by the municipalities participating in the project (Cremona (IT), Monza (IT), Söderhamn (SE), Lubjana (SI)). This will be done by focusing on the "outreach" phase of the local participatory processes - in order to raise young people's participation - and on maintaining the constant participation of young people to them during the whole process (continuous participation). The project will design and test a methodology and a set of tools enabling the active involvement of young people in the local participatory processes, through the commitment of already experienced young people acting as "ambassadors"/facilitators among their peers. The method will be designed at European level by young people themselves, with the support of the youth workers, through the organisation of an European informal learning workshop. The same type of workshop will be replicated at local level, in order to involve new "ambassadors" and to define a specific local action plan aiming at outreaching young people. Once tested, the methodology and the toolbox could be used in each partner country as well as disseminated in Europe, thanks to Guidelines which will be produced and disseminated in the framework of the project. The project is based on the concepts of "empowerment", "informal learning" and "capacity building" addressed to young people who already have a previous experience in participatory processes. Such an approach will help them to feel more self-confident in order to act as "ambassadors" among their peers. A special attention will be paid to the definition of methods enabling the involvement of young people with fewer opportuni8es.

Our aim is to offer to young people non-formal learning possibilities in a context of international solidarity. The choice to coordinate hosting social projects is not accidental, since we would like to offer to young people an opportunity of living deep moments of sharing, exchange and solidarity at international level. Our aim is, first of all, to let them grow and mature as a person but also as an European citizen. All activities which are part of this project offer to European volunteers the opportunity to live in a community engaged in social work. Through sharing of daily life with qualified operators, assisted people and other volunteers, young Europeans can experience and understand what "solidarity" and "tolerance" really mean. This project would like to involve young people in voluntary activities which develop knowledge and respect of otherness and a sense of responsability towards important social problems which are not only Italian but European ones. The link among all activities of this project is that they are strong development and forming possibilities, precious moments to create a culture made of broad-mindedness, exchange and mutual respect, which is able to destroy barriers and prejudices. We believe that young people must learn more and more the value of solidarity between nations and people, so to create a shared and more cohesive Europe.

The volunteer's ideas and points of view would increase the intercultural dimension of the organiza8on.They will bring new ideas for the anima8on and will work together with the guests and youngsters that attend the rehearsal room and the organization in general.Speaking about the third level of the project, the one concerning the local community, we believe that their presence will give intercultural dimension to Dolo, will help the youngsters of that area to open themselves to a more international reality and also to get more information about the existing mobility possibili8es and about Youth in Ac8on Programme.

In our opinion, hosting of a volunteer from another country offers an important opportunity both to the association as to the volunteer himself / herself. For our association it is an opinion that goes with its activities and the objectives it wishes to active. Having in mind the typology of the associations activities, it can be easily seen that the presence of a foreign volunteer in the working group is considered an important resource. Moreover since there are lots of initiatives towards the foreign citizens, the presence of a multinational working group is considered to be of a great important. Our experience of hosting Italian volunteers and Leonardo da Vinci participants have a positive outcome and have motivated the association to get engaged in projects of hosting European volunteers: we believe that hosting a volunteer from another country is valuable for increasing the intercultural dimension of the activities since the volunteer introduces a different point of view, different competences and cultural background.

Lately some organizations started actively dealing with this issue and pressing Government to make country strategy but this is still on an inadequate level. Also, citizens are mostly not aware that these problems have the great influence for nature and society we live and that by small effort from their side they can contribute in a great way to protec8on of European environment.During past years our organiza8on has made a great effort in environmental education of youth about themes such are waste recycling management and producing and using renewable sources of energy. Participation from an EVS volunteer, interested to join us in our efforts, will give additional value for developing this idea. Thought intercultural dialogue she/he will contribute by comparing the state in his/her country and Serbia, spreading the good solutions, giving the "live examples" and in this way contribute to the better education of the citizens and more successful solvment of environmental problems in our country.

It's a very difficult and sensi8ve moment, especially when the "working language" is not so well know by the majority of the group: it could became a crisis element for the success of the activities. In fact, the young people could have very different mastery level of the "working language", depending by the educational system of the belonging countries, their previous experiences, their social background, etc. The wish to increase the participation of youngsters with few opportunities has to be accompanied by increasing quality in the prepara8on of youth leaders.So, what we can do? What does it means to use non verbal communication strategies in an international and intercultural context? Without words will focus on potential youth leaders, improving their skills in non verbal communication in order to facilitate communica8on dynamics during a youth exchange.

The goal is to guarantee the same capability of applying for Youth in Ac8on programme. We will adopt two measures: a seminar in Italy that will host all the people in charge for Youth Programme in each European seat to stimulate an exchange of good practices; a job shadowing visit between Italy and Romania in order to let the two associations, IBO Italy and Rom pentru Rom,share and exchange their prac8ce experiences in the field of youth volunteering ac8vi8es.
