Context/background of Project: The Safetalkers project, takes great pride in promoting differing cultures and creating experiences for students and children Worldwide. Safetalkers is a Debate project designed for students across Europe that want their voices to be heard on simple social, non political issues. Objectives: Our aim is to bring together these students and create a platform for them to have their say on important and significant topics whilst improving on copious educational skills in a neutral, controlled environment suitable for all ages and cultures. They in turn learn social and language skills, gain cultural awareness, increase in self confidence, communication and team playing skills. The above are practical skills that cannot be taught in a classroom context. Hence, the safetalkers debate is a unique platform that will cut across social and cultural barriers, as an informal European class of students that would go back to their schools and jointly head the debaters club. Number and Profiles of Participants: Our participants will be students between the ages of 14 and 30 and their teachers from UK, Germany, France and Norway. And will be engaging in a Debate project taking place at the University of East London. The project will run for 6 days in a month for a duration of 9 months. During which time they will have the opportunity to bond with fellow participants and gain knowledge of the cultures and a carefully crafted London tour. Methodology: Mentoring sessions are organized for the students when they arrive the United Kingdom. Here, the theories and grammar will be gone over one final time by our hand picked English University students. Various teaching methods will be used during this time including: Role play Breathing techniques Confidence building activities. Team building activities. All of the above will happen bearing in mind that the students would have had a proper knowledge of the topics before arriving in the United kingdom. The results and Impacts envisaged: Just some of the benefits our participants can expect to achieve during this project are; - An increased motivation on discussing social issues - Increased knowledge of internationalization strategies - Enhanced intellectual awareness - Improved English language skills - Expanded self empowerment/self esteem - The participants are encouraged and empowered by the mentors to go back and jointly head their debate clubs. Potential longer termed benefits: The Debate itself will be recorded by an accomplished media company and televised on satellite channel "Information Television" in a series of programs named "The Safe Talk". All debates will also be available to view on our sister website www.signaturekids.co.uk. "The Safe Talk" will show participants in 2 groups debating over a specific topic. A moderator will be present to ensure its smooth running and each debate will also contain a main guest which will be an expert in the topic field to maximize the benefit participants and viewers receive from the discussion. Televising the Debate means making it readily available to the millions of viewers that "Information Television" has. This ensures its impact on society and therefore achieves our goal of giving these students a voice. We strongly believe that once up and running this project will grow from strength to strength.
