Study Visit “Rural Development through entrepreneurship” aims to explore the possibilities of developing and running different kind of entrepreneurship activities in rural areas based on share of good experience and reality of the Republic of Moldova.  It is well known that the migration from rural to urban areas or to develop countries, special in EECEA region brought the fact that many of the villages remained populated only by old people and children.  The investments usually refers to the welfare of particular families and not to an entrepreneurship activity where the money can produce sources for community development and change the rural life into a prosper one.  Moldova is one of the countries famous for massive migration to European countries. While many citizens remained to work on the black market some of them turned back home and invested in their communities, these mainly referring to agriculture, social life and manufacturing.  We do believe that a Study Visit where young people can get acquainted with the successful examples of rural entrepreneurship, can raise the self-esteem of rural young people, stop the massive migration and motivate those who immigrated to invest in their community. The project is based on the share of good experience alongside the concrete information to be provided on how to develop an entrepreneurship activity, what are the needed resources for a good start, what kinds of European grants do support rural development and how to put the ideas into practice. The project  will deeply explore the topic of Global Warming and new technologies offered for ecological entrepreneurship.
The project is opened to 30 young people from 10 EU and EECA countries coming from rural or deprived areas that will be able to learn, share and implement entrepreneurial ideas when back home.

Different kinds of abuses along with more banal injustices, like slapping a girlfriend or paying women less for their work, arise out of a social context in which women are, often, second-class citizens. That’s a context that our societies have helped shape, and not pushed hard to change. Women are prevented from playing a full and equal role in many fields, creating an environment in which violations against women are justified. The belief that women are inferior human beings gives excuses to the brutal husband who beats his wife, the soldier who rapes a woman, the employer who has a lower pay scale for women employees, or parents who decide to abort a female embryo. Starting from infancy, girls face worse treatment than boys in such forms as selective malnutrition and denial of equal access to education and health services. We will not succeed in changing this reality we’re facing if we do not support women in fighting for their rights for which all of us as young people and youth ngo’s have a part to play in creating a more equal and just world and help these goals to be achieved.

This is why gender equality and is key focus of our youth exchange so that we make a change starting from the ground level by giving skills to youngsters that can spread their knowledge to the real people that are usually left out from all the big policies and empower the right beneficiaries: women. This project also aims to raise the awareness among the participants and the local population about the need for active participation of women in all levels and active public life. Therefore the project will include workshops centred on ways to promote empowerment on women on all levels as a social and political agenda.

This project will be held in Krusevo, Macedonia, between 22 and 29 April 2014 and it will feature 41 participants from Macedonia, Serbia, Albania, United Kingdom, Romania, Italy, Estonia and Turkey.

In every country there are some words used that cannot be translated or explained in different cultural contexts. This happens because these words have a very special and strong cultural background, a fact that makes 

them quite “unique”. In order to understand their meaning, someone needs to understand first the cultural elements hidden behind them. And that’s why it’s really hard, even for experts, to translate and interpret them. In the project “Spread the Word, Feel the World”, participants will 

make a research in finding such words in their countries/communities and cultural contexts, share, present them and elaborate on cultural diversity and citizenship through multiple discussions, workshops, games and activities. Once the national cultures are presented and explored, participants are going to emphasize on the European culture and its aspects. 

Some important objectives of the project are: 

- to reflect on participants' own cultural identity 

- to experience intercultural learning and getting connected through identifying similarities and differences with other young Europeans with different cultural backgrounds 

- to develop self-confidence, creative and critical thinking and overcome their fear of expressing feelings and opinions 

- to adopt attitudes of mutual understanding, tolerance and solidarity towards cultural differences in order to build social cohesion within the EU

- to discuss and reflect on European culture and point out the importance of participation in the European Parliament Elections 2014 

- to develop social, personal, group-work skills and the ability to work collectively in an inter-cultural environment.

Kokkuvõte inglise keeles:

This multilateral 1.1 youth exchange called „Village in a Puzzle” will be organized in a beautiful and quite isolated rural area from the North of Romania, away from big cities and closer to old traditions and legends. During 10 days, 44 young people from 6 different programme countries, with an interest in the main topic of the exchange, the rural space seen through the eyes of young people in today’s society, will exchange opinions, interact, share and gain more knowledge.

They will discover traditions and values from the Romanian rural society, while at the same time comparing what they learn with their experiences back home. Also, they will be looking at the differences between rural and urban areas, discussing disadvantages of life “in the country-side”.

Its main objectives are:

- Stimulating young people to understand better the issues of the poverty matter that is affecting the rural space and how are European Union member countries dealing with this problem, through the use of European Citizenship as key-concept.

- Facilitating intercultural dialogue between 44 European youngsters from 6 different countries, using non-formal methods of education, with a special focus on national rural traditions and customs.

- Organizing a public presentation of relevant photos taken by the young participants during the exchange, photos that will reflect the rural life in Romania as seen through the eyes of a foreigner. Each participant in this way will be able to present its own vision based on personal past experiences.

- Organizing a public presentation of amateur videos made by the young participants that will reflect the rural life in Romania, again seen through the eyes of a foreigner. Compared to the photo presentation, videos can generate a much higher impact and can recreate and transmit better the feelings which the author had;

- Multiplication of the presentations mentioned above into the local communities of the partners involved, in order to share realities and exchange experiences.

“Village in a Puzzle” takes place between 20 and 29 March 2014 and gathers a total of 44 participants from Italy, Spain, Estonia, Croatia, Poland and Romania. As previously stated, activities will be highly interactive, based on non-formal education methods, and consist of team-building games, outdoor discovery games, photo and video workshops, artistic presentations, brainstorming, sessions for debates, cultural nights, etc.

Kandideeri EVS vabatahtlikuks Prantsusmaal!

Otsime vabatahtlikke, kes sooviksid olla vabatahtlikud 10 kuud algusega 01.09.2014 Prantsusmaal Lyon'is või St. Etienne's. Kandideerima on oodatud noored vanuses 18-30 aastat, kes pole varem pikaajalises vabatahtlikus teenistuses osalenud. Loe täpsemalt projektide kirjeldusi siit:

http://ec.europa.eu/youth/evs/aod/hei_form_en.cfm?EID=14001368631

ja

Tegu on veel esitamata projektiga, seega valitakse vabatahtlikud enne välja ja alles siis esitatakse projekt rahastuse saamiseks (17.03). Seega pole rahastus 100 % kindel, kuid varasemalt on meil sama organisatsiooniga positiivsed kogemused (ka hetkel on üks Eesti vabatahtlik Prantsusmaal samas organisatsioonis), ning hindame rahastuse saamise tõenäosust küllaltki suureks. 

Vabatahtlikul on projekti vältel tasuta söök, majutus, kohalik transport ja keelekursused. Samuti saab vabatahtlik iga kuu 115 € taskuraha ning kaetakse suur osa tema reisikuludest (täpsem % oleneb sellest, kui soodsad piletid leitakse, varasemalt on see on 90 %). 

Kandideerimiseks tuleb saata järgnevad dokumendid inglise keeles sama aegselt p.perra@mlve.org ja seiklejate.vennaskond@gmail.com. Arvesse lähevad ainult mõlemale aadressile saadetud vormid.

Welcome to our new project – something unique that you most probably have not done before! The general idea of this seminar is to bring together (1) people that already work with youth (youth workers, youth leaders, educators) and are looking for new ways to approach youth and (2) young choreographers and dancers that wish to start working with youth in the framework of non-formal education. The main aim of this seminar is to discover ways how movement and dance could be used as tool for providing non-formal learning opportunities for youth.

The contents of the seminar would include:   

-         Sharing experiences of youth-work in different countries

-         Raising awareness on non-formal learning in youth context

-         Experiencing and exploring contemporary dance as a tool for learning

-         Gender situation in Georgia as a case study

-         Developing ideas for future cooperation between youth-workers and choreographers/dancers in own countries as well as internationally 

Participants

This seminar will gather 24 participants – two to three people from each country (Georgia, Armenia, Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Latvia, Estonia, Sweden and Slovenia).

From each country we expect youth-workers (people who work with young people at the local level on daily basis) AND choreographers/dancers (professionals or amateurs that are passionate about dance). All of participants are expected not only to participate actively in the seminar, but also ready to commit themselves for implementing some activities involving contemporary dance for young people in their country after the seminar. As seminar will take place in English, it is important to have very good communication skills in this language.

Koolitus Inglismaal - kultuuride vaheline õpe läbi muusika

4.-11. veebruar toimub Flaxley's Inglismaal koolitus, mille teemaks on kultuuride vaheline õpe läbi muusika maagia. Kandideerima on oodatud aktiivsed noored, noortejuhid ja noortega töötavad inimesed (18+). Eesti osalejatele on 3 kohta. Koolituse, majutuse ja toidukulud on kaetud 100 % programmi Euroopa Noored poolt, ise tuleb osalejatel katta lennukipiletid, millest saab 70 % tagasi. Lennata võib näiteks Birminghami (edasi-tagasi piletid 230 €, seega omakulu 69 €) või Londoni (hetke piletid 130 €, seega omakulu 39 €). Londonisse lendamise puhul tuleb arvestada, et see asub ca poole kaugemal projekti toimumiskohast, seega on ka kohalikud bussipiletid kallimad. Kandideerimiseks lae alla ANKEET ja saada see 14.01.2014ks (kaasa arvatud) aadressile seiklejate.vennaskond@gmail.com.

The Training which will be held on March 16-25th, 2014 will be on the topic of MOTIVATION. According to the experience that NPT gained through its numerous national and international trainings as well as research projects, young people in the wide range of cases do not lack talent, skills, abilities to bring change in their own realities and in the social environment of their communities, but they simply do not have or are lacking appropriate motivation. Motivation is not something that is given to one in a certain portion (relatively big or small), this is a feature of our deep inner self, which is connected with a lot of other aspects, such as awareness, creativity, compassion etc. As well this is a feature of us with which we can certainly work, and a set of psychological disciplines, spiritual traditions and training schools are suggesting numerous tools on how to approach this issue. This training course is dedicated to the development of the skills of youth workers and youth leaders from EECA and Program countries to support young people in their quest for MOTIVATION…
