Meeting colleagues for an exciting walk in the old city but also talk and talks about critical thinking and international cooperation to make young people into strong awared citizens, is how our summer goes.

There is an old Belarusian tradition TALAKA that has been successfully implemented by us in Hästveda, as we – colleagues, friends nad volunteers, help together to a common project, slowly slowly to get into shape our future course yard where people with deviant competences will find sanctuary and conditions to learn and develop. As resources are realy limited we proceed at a pace that youtube- and google-learning allow, with only crutial competences like certified plumber and electrician, paid.

At Almedals week, our leader Tania Bauder talks about how easy it is to miss voices of vulnerable groups of young people if they on some reason cannot present themselves as actively as their peers from other social groups. Democracy turns another side: you don’t speak therefore you don’t exist. From individual to systemic bullying, we can follow self-inflicted isolation and void of important insights about segregation in the society, something that may cost us A LOT as history teaches.

Thank you all participants of DiscriminHate Nobody-project for this valuable and painful awareness.

Pheeeww!!!
Despite corona restrictions chaos and a chain of administrative challenges, how else with that topic 🙂 we did got together for a wonderful inspirational work on a Book Of Songs, our experiences of failures and fckups put together not as facts but as a flow of feelings and support towards ourselves, our colleagues and all the young people out there struggling with insecurity and fear.
Forward and forward!
Here are some pictures from the project that took place in Turkey with the support from Erasmus+ program, in February 2022.

Second year of Project Pocket is highlighted by focus on support for people coming from Ukraine as – how can you ever be prepared for the war?
So now we are open for suggestions, experiments and new inputs, welcome!

Open and free for everyone, we invite lazy walkers and curious citizens to try, practice, meet or just watch. Enjoy the sunset, sea and birds. And music.

Quite a few ideas and propositions high and low were ventilated during the project planning meeting with both digital and personal participants from Ukraine, Sweden and Turkey. We tried the environment for durability and patience of organizers for fantasy…

Wow we thought we will just do some workshops… It settles down for a minor revolution here!!!
