Also, being the year of innovation, we will create a common dance called "European dance". While remixing the typical dances of our home countries we show that it has the ability to connect different cultures. But we do not see only the final product as relevant, the whole process of creating will be for the youngsters a source of great experience with the other cultures. In this process they will be asked to place their own ideas, to listen to the ideas of the others and to unit them into one dance that will be representing all regions. That has a need of high creativity, cooperation, tolerance, determination and persistence from the youngsters.Inside of that week there will be used different methods specific to non-formal education like: workshops, multimedia presentations, learning-based experiment, exchange of experiences etc.
