Don´t be afraid
Start date: May 15, 2015, End date: Jun 14, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The youth exchange Don't be afraid took a place in SVČ Déčko in Náchod (in the Czech Republic) for 10 days. 28 participants and 4 leaders attended on this project from the Czech Republic, Ukraine, Poland and Portugal. All the participants and leaders were involved in the planning, realization and spreading of a result of the project. The aim of the project was to create a dance movie about a young person who must find his intern motivation and overcome an initial fear of his culture and social exclusivity and must integrate to the community of his peers. Thanks to this project we showed that self-realization in an informal activity is an unforced way to the social inclusion. During the project the youth learned how to work with a professional movie technology, they tried different movie characters and they learnt a lot of practical skills for more interests, studies and work. All participants increased their empathy and tolerance of different cultures and they got to know new dance techniques. The final movie included a subtitles in native languages of the participating countries. The activities during the exchange led to achievement of our set goals – to make a high-quality movie in which all the youth were involved by creating a script, preparation and creation. The participants ware not only actors, but also the producers, directors, costumers, make-up artists and technical support. Every day the group was concentrated to a specific sequence of the movie from both – acting and preparatory sides. Each partner organisation was responsible for spreading the final movie among youth in their location and within social media after the exchange. Apart of formal complications with adding Ukrainian group to the application form, this project had a big success and a lot of organizations - not only the one involved in the project - are still interested in presenting created movie for their workers and for public. The movie was also delivered to Czech NA before its première. Nowadays movie is accessible for free on Youtoube.
