TOP DOWN & BOTTOM UP - communication and political systems
Start date: May 2, 2016, End date: Jan 1, 2017 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Young people between 15-17 years from each of the countries France, Spain, Italy, Poland and Germany will get together at the area of Kulturkosmos Müritz e. V. The area in the middle of the Mecklenburg Lake District offers very good infrastructural and personal conditions to realize this project.In the last several years we already made good experiences with combining sociopolitical topics with cultural education and cultural forms of expression. The project was developed with our partners during the last youth exchanges.This year's youth exchange's title is “top down & bottom up”. The topic will be communication and political systems and which effect both have on our living in society. Our intention is to look at discrimination in society. The second step is to strengthen young people's democratic consciousness and their way of communicating.The topic will be developed along the adolescents experiences in their daily life (methodically, interactive, thematically). Their experiences will be broadened through exchange and theoretical input. In theater, film/media, musical and visual arts workshops young people work on a joint performance. All workshops consider a creative way of assimilating the main topic.Working on a joint performance with the help of different cultural forms of expressions offers many ways of non-formal learning. Also the young people get to know each other very well. In addition there will be leisure activities to support the topical examination. Finally the performance will be presented in front of other young people, parents and interested audience. The workshops and activities will also be documented by the participants. There will be a movie about the play which can be presented to the public. Further it will be an enduring memory for all participants. Realizing this camp is one further step in a sustainable and so far very good cooperation with our partners. It is also an expansion of our network and will be a foundation for further projects.
