FOSTERING INTEGRATION THROUGH COMMUNICATION OF MULTICULTURALISM
Start date: Dec 1, 2013,

The project FIT.COM aims to foster cooperation and exchange of best practices among organizations from EU (Italy and Germany) and partner countries of the world (Tanzania and Peru) that work with young people in multicultural contexts. The theme of the project is intercultural dialogue, prevention and management of conflicts in multicultural contexts. Models facilitating intercultural dialogue and using different art-based-communication techniques already experimented with success by partners will be shared among them. Key project activities (non-formal training cycles, job shadowing in each countries, dissemination days) are mainly aimed at the acquisition of new skills and experimentation of new methodologies by direct beneficiaries from partner countries. The project will also involve indirect beneficiaries by spreading project results, outputs and methodologies that could be replicated in other contexts. Multiculturalism will be experimented directly by participants improving their tolerance, cultural expression and language skills. By active participation in producing project outputs, participants will stimulate their creativity and initiative spirit. In this way, FIT.COM will improve capacity-building of youth organizations and skills of their workers and young people involved; create reproducible models of intercultural dialogue for prevention and management of conflicts; produce and spread products built on innovative art-based-communication techniques; establish sustainable local, national and international networks for exchange and cooperation in the youth and intercultural fields supported by the project’s online platform. In the long term, FIT.COM will contribute to foster, at national and international scale, youth initiatives as well as partnerships and networks of organizations interested in experimenting with innovative models for intercultural dialogue and prevention and management of conflicts in multicultural contexts.
