Summary: "Animate your soul" is dedicated to developing competencies among youth workers to contribute to a cohesive society through alternative street animation and campaigning methods.
Details: Reaching groups of young people that are excluded, isolated, discriminated, while building a tolerant and healthy diverse community, is always a hard, challenging and difficult task. Streets have a huge potential in terms of informing, making awareness, including and building a community. That said, specific methods designed for street work are highly recommended in this field and especially in times when they are not so widely applied.

• to develop sense of common responsibility for the future of their local communities from a global and social perspective;

• To stimulate the participants to act as “social exclusion fighters” in their own organization and regions;
