Obrazi ulic: digitalne zgodbe v mladinskem delu z ranjivimi skupinami
Start date: May 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Mobility of youth workers “Facing the street - Digital Storytelling in youth work with vulnerable groups” will last 9 days in July 2016 in Ljubljana. It will bring together youth workers from Slovenia, Latvia, Portugal, France, Estonia, 2 organizations from Italy, 2 organizations from Greece and Spain. This mobility offers core training on Digital Storytelling – methodology that enables youth workers to critically assess media representation of diversity, and offer alternative view by address social exclusion through photo-stories and video-documentaries.Immediate objective of the project is to educate inclusion youth workers on how to use Digital Storytelling tool in their work with vulnerable groups. Mid-term objective is to pass this knowledge from youth workers to the communities they work with, and as a result have Digital Stories created directly by young people facing social exclusion. Long term aim of such initiative is to commence a dialogue on inclusion, between different groups and offer less known image of those living on the margins. Overall, the project offers an empowerment tool both for youth workers and socially excluded communities.While in Ljubljana, participants will meet with different individuals who represent “the invisible” - migrants, asylum seekers, former detainees, minorities, Roma, youth with special needs and create approximately 10 photo stories and 4 short videos that will connect the viewer to personal stories of exclusion. After the mobility ends, participants will multiply this methodology, working directly with their target groups from fewer opportunity communities.The expectations are that this project will provide partners and participants with the competences to take their collaboration to the next level by implementing these results through a future, larger scale project.
