Context of the ProjectSocial conflict is phenomenon which occurs by the restriction of different ideas, feelings, values or motivation among people. It also consist of risks that can cause polarisation and exclusion among people and thus create an unequal situations. This phenomenon occurs among people, but also represents incompatibilities between groups and organizations as well. Conflicts are like icebergs and emphasize the positions of parties first, but the rooted causes of them generally are different interests and values. Moreover, the diversity of youth work can also create a conflict between young people from different social background and experiences, and also between young people and youth workers; but these differences can also be a opportunity to learn working together for mutual benefit (Youth Transforming Conflict, Council of Europe, 2012).
