The initiative of this training course aims to bring together youngsters of different categories who consider themselves to be activists of organisations that do include in their work marginalised groups from their societies and their local environments, in order to achieve broader inclusion with higher quality from different parts of Europe and prevent as well as combat poverty. The training course will provide these dynamic people with information on how to:
- structure an idea;
- develop it in to a project proposal;
- appropriate implementation;
- useful evaluation;
- follow up.
The main aim of the 8 days training course ''Limitless Learning Possibilities' 2' is to embody the participant’s aspirations in life of being original and of being driven their dreams to fulfil goals that will contribute not only to their own development but that of others as well; to bring change and new ideas that will come to the use of many. In order to affect change and to establish a path for others to follow, one must improve oneself further by acquiring more knowledge and by strengthening the analytical as well as the practical skills.
We have always shared the belief that knowledge is not only acquired through learning but also through experience and through encounters (interactions) with people. That is why it is important to work and to study in an international and diverse environment much like the one that TC offers.
The training course will take place in Prishtina, Kosovo from 03 to 12 of November 2017. The participating countries are Poland, Turkey, Kosovo, Macedonia, Romania and Spain. In total there will be 28 participants out of which 2 will be trainers (one from Poland and one from Kosovo) and 1 a support staff from Poland and 1 from Kosovo.
Together with the Center for Economic and Social Development team as the hosting organization, participants and group leaders will explore the realm of Prishtina armed with backpacks filled with simple journalistic equipment to aid them share stories of struggle and success of marginalized groups.
The Training Course is to promote equal citizenship for everyone across our communities, to bring awareness among the young people that there is a big difference among those living within the margins and those living on the margins of society and that this obstacle can be overcome with mutual efforts. As the participants will be working in groups, each of the groups will produce in the end creative article contents highlighting the struggles and successes of those living on the margin, launching in our cultural spheres true food-for-thought that will strive to unravel the stereotypes.
All partners will receive detail programme of the project in second attachment.
