The citizens of the European Union are part of a new globalized era, in which ones initiatives and attitudes do not stop at a physical boarder or neighbourhood. Nor does our responsibility end at the edge of our political system. The partners in this project have realized this enormous opportunity to build bridges of sustainable knowledge transfers, that will enable each of the participating organizations to contribute to their society and thus create an awareness of the above mentioned reality. this project was created as a consequence of a Long Term Training Course in 2012 and 2013 where the need for further cooperation between the regions has been formulated and planed. The aim of this project has two important pillars. First to offer space for individuals to gain skill and experience in the field of internet technologies and second to foster and strengthen the partnerships between the involved organisations. 40 Participants from Europe, Asia, Middle East and Africa will come together to learn about cyber space as a place of new paradigms. Representatives of more than ten regions and more than eleven languages will come together to learn, evaluate and use the internet and its tools in order to develop their specific communities. It will also be evaluated to which extent the internet provides tools for change or tools for participation of young people in their respective community. Participants will be representatives of their organisations, ready to implement the acquired knowledge in their organisation. Focus will be given to representatives who face difficulties in participating in such projects. Foreseen activities are based on non-formal educational principles where the learner is responsible of co-designing and co-deciding of which learning content is important for them or not and how they would want to acquire it. We will offer experts in the field, infrastructure and a safe place to learn and experience relationships, which are fundamental in any learning process. On a long term we would like to create a sustainable partnership network that allow organisations to operate professionally in regard to democratic tools development and their application with their respective target group.
