4x4
Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Jul 31, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The intercultural exchange "4x4" was designed for 16 young people aged from 15 to 25, with and without disabilities belonging to the associations "MeToDo" (Italy) and Recreativity (Hungary). Seen the necessary assistance for 4 young people with disabilities and teenage minors, we relied on 2 leaders per association + 2 social workers for people with disabilities. The dates of the youth exchange were 20-28 April 2015, whereas the 'APV took place at the week-end 6-8 March 2015, the venue was Montevarchi. Objectievs of the exchange were a better knowledge about the partner countries and breaking down steretypes concerning young people, in general, and disabilities, in particular. By using and relying on photo-cameras, social media and video-making, the young people of the two associations acted as "peer educators" and passed onto each other audio-visual knowledge and digital workshops, whose results were taken to the public event towards the end of the exchange both to sensibilise the community and show the abilities of all participants. On the long term we hope that this exchange will help motivate young people, be they with or without disabilities. They were encouraged to explore further the European dimension and rely on their own abilities. We believe, also, that the acquisition of digital competences now renders young people even more employable in the working world.
