Wide-Open Windows
Meet Peace in Green
Open Call for Youth Exchange on Peace Education and Outdoor
Synergy Olde Vechte Foundation is applying for Youth Exchange for the upcoming Erasmus + Deadline (30/ 04/14). We aim to bring together Peace Educators and outdoor experts to challenge the existing pattern in Peace building and reconciliation. Also to reshape the understanding of Peace and conflict resolution while using outdoor as a tool combined with non-violent communication. The exchange will be partly indoor and partly outdoor oriented.
Wide-Open Windows will take place in autumn 2014 ( The exact dates will be announced later on directly to potential partners )
The objectives are following :
- To bring together different stakeholders with different educational and professional background
- To reshape and develop conceptual and practical meaning of Peace and Conflict Resolution while changing traditional way of thinking
- To empower facilitators while creating new path to Peace
- To unlock capacity and potential of participants which will lead to new understanding and methodology to tackle Peace and Conflict
We invite organizations for partnership which are involved or having experience either in Peace-Building/ Peace Education or Outdoor or both of them.
We are open for organizations who are coming from EU and neighbor countries.
