This year has been active in Hästveda, our Outintic house. It is time to clean up and wrap up for the year. Old wood, building materials and pieces of glass after hooligans braking the window, seem to reproduce itself and keep popping up. Will this process ever end???
Yes the events of the last few years have been jaw-dropping and sad. But the natural power of civil society, volunteering initiatives and formalized projects have been making difference before, during and after the crisis of any kind and scale. We believe in civil society and want to help those who want to continue work with social, humanitarian, integrational and cultural matters, in Sweden. Let’s connect our past and present networks and competences, and create new! Study Swedish language to work with social projects and civil society issues. This group is primarily for people under special protection law and political asylum. Registration to the group is here: https://forms.gle/2phcUcqgxJXrxUEV9 All questions to: contact@projectpocket.se

Learning by doing…. What choice do we else have if the windows were damaged by the group staying in the house? Accidents happen, it is just to google-youtube-discuss-try-evaluate 🙂 And from one window, it is easy spreading onto another half dussin…
The active summer has passed and our learning center Outintic House in Hästveda has sank in washing, cleaning, fixing and resting. Now we have extra time to enjoy peaceful surroundings and nature, cook the forest’s gifts and reflect on all the learnings acquired through the year.
Presence of young people of different backgrounds, in particular when they are active outside conducting different excersises and questst, have risen quite some different reactions of local people that sometimes get comments on local facebook group. Integration is a habit and we decided to go public, sharing what we do and who we are, for and with a local community in an open event in Hästveda station restaurant.
