The YE "The dance of the future" is a project dealing with dance choreography as a tool for expression of one’s opinion on a given matter.Participants would use dances from national popular cultures as ICL methods to present the gravity of how people in poverty and in excluded social groups live in their countries and how they understand poverty and social excluded groups through dance. Using dance as a tool, it will challenge assumptions about gender, ethnic identity, political, religious and cultural context in which lives are lived in the global European society. The aim of this youth exchange would be to draw a choreography picture about how young people see poverty and marginalized groups in their countries and how they see their inclusion in the mainstream society. The participants would have the opportunity to perform the dances for inclusion during the projects in front of the audience.The partners from former conflicted areas on Balkan will give this project additional conflict transformation line.The youth exchange will be in October 2013 and will include 48 youngsters from 8 countries from EU and SEE: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Kosovo, Serbia, Croatia, Spain, Poland and Greece.
