At the beginning of spring, we started a new project called "Making Ourselves at Home" in Krzyżowa. It was a Polish-German-Greek youth meeting that took place from 24-30 March 2022 and was attended by a group of 36 girls and boys aged 15-17.
Students of Campus Efeuweg from Berlin, Liceum Ogólnokształcące nr XV we Wrocławiu and The 3rd High School of Arta participated in classes and workshops devoted mainly to the issues of migration, integration and empowerment. These were topics that are close to them, as most of the project participants had migration experience. An important event of the exchange was the renewal of the wooden, colorful rainbow located on the foundation's premises, which is a kind of symbol of our youth projects. It was created 12 years ago on the initiative of Klaus and Claudia Gust, who have now decided to cover the cost of purchasing the paint for its renovation and came to Krzyżowa in person to take part in the renovation together with young people.
The project "Making Ourselves at Home" is financed by the Erasmus + program and the German-Polish Youth Office.
Coordination: Leonie Beeskow - specialist in educational projects of the IYMC.
