Dear future-partners,
We, the "Fundació Catalunya Voluntària" from Barcelona/Spain, in
collaboration with the organization AMPGYL (http://www.ampgyl.org/) of
Barcelona invite you to a new project.
Action: Youth Exchange
Title: "Ordinary, at last!"
Dates: AP visit 15-16 of May 2010
Youth Exchange activities: 19-25 of July 2010.
Participants: 20 participants from 5 countries (4 participants for each
country), from 18 to 25 years old (a part from the leader group, which can
be older that 25). Of course, we expect the participation of lesbians/gay
guys such as of heterosexuals, in order to create a heterogenic space of
discussion and to share more different points of views as possible…
Main topic and objectives: no-discrimination
Summary: The gay and lesbian youth are at a disadvantage and social
isolation. The difficulty in accepting and being accepted by their
environment causes them to live much of their adolescence and youth with
communication barriers with people around them, often living with
harassment and always feeling different. In this context, it is vital to
provide an environment in which, as noted in the name of the exchange, for
the first time not to feel different and "weird", and just to enjoy being
with other young people with similar experiences.
The idea of organizing this youth exchange came into being out of
experiences of parents' associations of lesbians and gay men, who often
generate spaces for their children in their encounters, where they can
relate independently. Although these experiences are very specific and of
short-term (maximum one weekend), the youngster who come experience an
impressive change: to feel that they are not alone in the world, to
establish relations of friendship, to share concerns and experiences with
people who also have experienced them.
>From here comes the idea to offer this kind of opportunity, as to say to
have a space to share problems, experiences and ideas and to use this
meeting for discussions about the general idea of discrimination and what
nowadays society regards as “ordinary” taking in consideration the
different views or perceptions in different countries. What does it mean
to be normal? What are the troublemakers (like discrimination,
intolerance, …).
Facing these problems the youngster, both homo and heterosexuals, shall be
become prepared to neutralize the mechanisms of discrimination and not to
suffer from them anymore, or even to use them, change them and become more
self-confident to express themselves freely.
-The objectives are:
* Create a surrounding in which the young gays and lesbians can socialize
with people from different countries who are in the same situations,
without feeling different from the group.
* Agree on problems of the young gays and lesbians and make proposals to
solve them.
* Share experiences of homophobia and the different ways to answer it.
* Know the paper of the European Union as a guarantor of equality for
lesbians and gays and consider how this role could be deepened.
