Youth Can Dance: Intercultural Learning Training
Start date: Feb 1, 2015, End date: May 31, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

This is an Erasmus+ (Youth) – Mobility of youth workers training project. The project consists of three activities training courses: two in the UK and one in Albania (November 2014 – February 2015). The main aim of the project is to develop youth work competences in intercultural dialogue, notably through non-verbal communication and cultural diversity - dancing activities. The project builds on long term experience of Praxis Europe in using dance as a tool in intercultural learning - we delivered a long term Grundtvig Partnership on this issue and have established good partnerships in Europe. Project specific objectives: train 90 learners (30 per course), to strengthen Erasmus+ Youth partnerships, including between EU and SEE countries, to increase the quality of youth service provision in partner countries, to foster intercultural learning in European youth projects and to promote cultural diversity through creative tools such as non-verbal communication and dance. The project programme involves a mixture of intercultural learning, dance and art methods, combined with non-formal learning tools such as energizers, team-building activities, small group workshops, interactive presentations and outdoor activities. Participants are youth workers and youth leaders from 10 countries (EU/Programme and Partner countries from South-East Europe): Albania, Bosnia, Serbia, Kosovo, Turkey, Poland, Netherlands, Macedonia, Italy and the UK. Project long-term outcomes: increased youth worker competences in facilitating intercultural dialogue and promoting cultural diversity using dance as a tool, higher quality partnerships between EU and SEE youth organisations and mainstreaming intercultural learning in youth work.
