There are over 200.000 foreign residents living in countries of V4. In recent years the number has increased. The migration trend leads to greater cultural and religious diversity, and according to various surveys, the majority of host societies does not have enough relevant information on migrants. Hostile political stance and negative portrays of migrants in the media further contributes to increased negative stereotypes, fear, and prejudice. We also are aware that formal education doesn’t have the relevant space needed to focus on the subject due to various reasons or doesn’t want to focus on such issues due to its sensitivity.We recognize the gap, its challenges, and see the potential of the work of civil society, non-governmental organization to take the role and positively influence.
The project objective is to build the awareness and to promote positive aspects of a cultural diversity among young volunteers via workshops and open discussions platforms. This educational experience is build in a way that further encourages volunteers‘ involvement in passing the message onto selected groups of young children. Overall goal of the project is therefore to integrate the multicultural tolerance into the formal education in form of non-formal teaching.
