Short term EVS project Summer school Sadnice mira Latinovac 2016. took place in the village Latinovac, municipality of Čaglin. It included 13 volunteers from Portugal, Lithuania and Spain. Time of project activities implementation was from 4th of June till 31st of August 2016.The focus of the project was peacebuilding, promotion of rural development, sustainable living and youth mobility. Within project we worked on connecting different generations and introducing different cultures and traditions. We presented a value of living in a small community and importance of active work within such community. We used different methods in our work: creativity supporting exercises, team and individual work, discussions, movie presentations, public discussions, etc. Upon project completion, volunteers gained experience of community work, public presentation, expend knowledge about different forms of team and group work which they’ll be able to use during working in their communities.
