Eu-East: mutual input and benefit

European Commission – Youth Programme - Training course
Brest – Belarus. 20 – 28 August 2005

The knowledge of the Youth Program of the European Commission can obviously represent a springboard for youngsters giving them more access to information, knowledge and social work methodologies.
This link between the knowledge of the Youth Program and the Youth development in Third Countries from the ex-Soviet Union was valuated as big interest from the partners during a few projects that took place in the last years, like the Training Course "From West to East: developing Democracy and Civil Society" (Brussels, May 2004) or the Study Visit in Kiev "From East: Nothing New?" (October 2004).
So, the intention of the present project is to train young leaders or workers, or even young people involved in the work of their associations, to the Youth Programme, in order for them to use it in their work with their disadvantaged public, which is a common characteristic of the partnership.
The aim would be to concentrate this Training on Action 1 and 5, with a short information on Action 2 and 3, and also to get out with a few ideas in order to pursue our collaboration.

A New Mind Open Your Eyes: lo stato delle libertà sociali e civili in BielorussiaA New Mind Open Your EyesMovie, Byelorussia, 2005, 19 min., English/Italian

There is a little spot in the Universe where somone has too much power… The movie has been recorded between Brest and Byelorussian countryside and it’s focused on the condition of social and civil freedom in a country considered as the last dictatorship in Europe. The images and the stories tell about a country pending between past and present, in which the occidental economy model doesn’t seem to generate big hopes. The estabilishement of centralized political regime and the large consensus are expression of the lack of a serious alternative to this social and economical development model. What’s the price? A freedom message coming from young souls and hearts.
