All will play music, and want to involve in Balsika and in on theme preparatory work. Theme will be stereotypes on genders and homophobia. We plan a preparatory visit in Sarajevo in May. Through films, pedagogic games, questionnaires, meeting with experts, topos prepared by each group, discussions, artistic activities, stereotypes on gender and problems faced by homosexuals will bee discussed by participants. Aim, in addition to rich intercultural discovery, is to give them a chance to have -personal reflection on discrimination still existing in work, salary, politics and stereotypes between men and women and fight against stereotypes on gender -and understanding of the problems that face homosexual people, modify their attitude towards them. This international exchange will also gather new groups into BalsiKa project and, thereby, work for peace and reconciliation. Durant 11 jours (25 juillet-4 août), 60 jeunes de 16-25 ans accompagnés de 14 leaders se réuniront à Tuzla en Bosnie-Herzégovine pour un échange jeunes "La Belle et la Bête : stéréotypes" sur le thème des stéréotypes sur le genre et l'homophobie. Ils viennent de 12 pays différents (FR-DE-TRK-HR-SRB-SLO-BiH-ALB-MN-MK-GRK-KO) et ont comme point commun de jouer de la musique et de vouloir faire partie du projet BalsiKa. Ils auront effectué un travail de recherche préalable sur le thème et 2 par groupe auront participé à une visite préparatoire à Sarajevo en mai. Outre la dimension interculturelle riche de l'échange, des films, interventions d'experts, des discussions prenant comme base des questionnaires et leur travail préalable, des activités artistiques communes, des jeux pédagogiques, questionnaires leur permettront d'échanger, de se pencher sur les discriminations actuelles dans les divers pays entre hommes et femmes sur le plan de la vie sociale, professionnelle et politique, de se faire une idée personnelle des problèmes rencontrés par des homosexuels en Europe et de lutter contre les stéréotypes et les idées toutes faites. Le but de cet échange international est également d'intégrer les nouveaux groupes dans BalsiKa et ainsi œuvrer pour la paix et la réconciliation.
