"Moving Youth" is an EVS project that will take a place from 3rd October 2016 till 5th August, 2017 in Komotini, Greece. Two young persons from Moldova will move in Komotini and by learning new skills and knowledge will be in position to act for the favor of the local youth. Our title describes our project philosophy as our project themes are ethics, democracy and human Rights and youth policies and participation.Moving in another country means learning and adjust the new knowledge to develop as a person and help the social and daily life development in your community. Through non formal activities our project will redefine the habits and the needs of youth in Komotini, underline the need to respect our environment and our health. "Moving Youth" means to adopt an active life style that is beneficial for youth as well as the social environment they live in. The volunteers will be the example for the whole community as they will create events and implement various activities. Moreover the two youngsters from Moldova will work on projects which aim to create a better life for youngsters, especially for those with fewer chances and those who are having luck educational support at their daily life. This systematic work along with all the other activities of System and G are able to create a System of unofficial rules that will be adopted by our citizens and change our community to a better way. In addition through inter-cultural activities the volunteers will present their culture, and through daily life they will be integrated in the Greek society. "Moving Youth" has also another meaning as promotes the youth mobility as a tool for the personal development and social change."Moving Youth" came as a natural achievement of the organization and our action in Komotini over the past four years, in the field of Youth participation, Human Rights and Democracy, Inter-religious and Structured Dialogue . The program will offer to the local youth a non formal series of methods for good life, inspired by non formal education. Methods and activities were adapted to the city's life, to promote our aims in different target groups such as: University Students, High School Students, unemployed youth and young people with fewer opportunities (focus on the city's religious diversity)Today, more and more often unfortunately we meet young people with serious challenges that block them from a bright future. In combination with the financial crisis in our country the situation in society is getting worse with Human Rights been in the shadowAt the same time, refugees crisis support the far rights opinion and help xenophobia to raise up in our society. Diversity is missing and everything different is not rightVolunteers working with young people will learn and develop ways to face these challenges that both are beneficial for themselves and the social environment! Promoting active participation in the city's democratic life and offer educational opportunities to the young people is the first step for a better society.
