Competences of a youth leader in an intercultural youth projectGabriel BREZOIU
The document discusses the roles and competencies of a youth leader for an intercultural youth project involving the EU and partner countries. It states that a leader is necessary to coordinate and structure the group's goals and activities. Key responsibilities of a youth leader include helping define goals, ensuring the group stays on task, facilitating discussions, and motivating members. Competencies include basic knowledge of their role and group leadership, understanding the project goals, and skills like structuring work, handling interpersonal dynamics, active listening, and being able to set aside personal views. While not needing to be an expert on the topic, the leader does require a basic understanding to properly facilitate discussions. The role of experts is then to provide knowledge and
The document chronicles the history and migration of Roma people from the 10th century to the 20th century. It outlines their arrival and settling in various regions of Europe between the 10th-16th centuries.

The goal of this European Training Course is to give tools to our partner organizations and the European youth workers to be able to increase the youngster’s knowledge about the global food system. We aimed to give to the participants concrete solutions to improve their food consuming in their everyday life and in their activities with youth people. Doing that, we aim to increase the awareness of the youth workers about today's world food issues and its local solutions and alternatives.
We first concentrated in global issues and then experimented several possibilities that can be done on local level.

A new crowdfunding platform called Potsieu was created in Romania to help validate entrepreneurial ideas. The platform allows young entrepreneurs in Romania, where only 1 in 100 start their own business, to test ideas, promote projects, and obtain alternative financing from community support. Starting a business often provides valuable learning experiences, even if the initial venture fails. Potsieu wishes entrepreneurs good luck and hopes to provide inspiration.
The document discusses challenges in the Romanian education system including lack of funding, low teacher pay, and poor student performance and motivation. It also discusses goals of using technology and online tools to improve learning by providing access, developing relevant curriculums, and building teacher communities. The overall objective is to make learning more exciting for students and help them develop skills for life.
The Romanian education system is underperforming and underfunded compared to other EU countries. Teacher salaries are low, many teachers fail certification exams each year, and student motivation and performance on tests like PISA are among the lowest in the EU. Google aims to help address these challenges by building a foundation of technology access and empowering communities to make learning more engaging and help students develop skills for future success. Its initiatives include providing schools with Google Apps, training teachers, and supporting programs in computing and coding.
The SMARTER project aims to empower youth workers to use social media tools in their employability projects. The objectives are to enable participants to use social media for communication, promotion, and management of projects to raise youth employment. It also aims to improve social media skills and personal branding to raise participants' employability and promote European cooperation in youth work through social media. The project targets schools, NGOs, public institutions, and other youth organizations across 14 European countries.

1. FR: RECOMMANDATIONS POUR LUTTER CONTRE LES DISCRIMINATIONS
ENVERS LES MINORITES MIGRANTES ET ROMS
1) RECOMMENDATIONS POUR LA SOCIETE CIVILE
Jeunes / public scolaire
o témoignages de migrants / Roms

o échanges scolaires, dans les familles
o Partenaires: associations de migrants, professeurs, RESF (Réseau éducation
sans frontières)
Migrants
o visites aux migrants
o rencontres entre femmes originaires du pays d'accueil et femmes migrantes
o apprentissage de la langue avec méthodes adaptées
o Partenaires: associations locales dans les quartiers
Professionnels

o Partenaires: centres de formation, mairie
Public large
o Campagnes de sensibilisation
o Festivals culturels pour se connaître

o Partenaires: associations de migrants, mairie
Voisins dans les quartiers
o Galas
o Rencontres culinaires / festives pour apprendre à connaître l'autre
o Partenaires: maisons de quartier, associations locales
2) RECOMMENDATIONS POUR DECIDEURS AUX NIVEAUX : LOCAL, NATIONAL, EUROPEEN
Points urgents : sécurité et éducation
Niveau local
o participation des migrants au processus de prise des décisions et à la création
des programs pour l’intégration
o encourager les autorités locales pour la sécurité
Niveau national
o encourager les autorités d'éducation à intégrer l’histoire des droits de
l’homme dans les cursus d’histoire
Niveau européen
o lobbying auprès des partis politiques nationaux
2. 3) RECOMMENDATIONS POUR ONGs
Informations et connaissances du public cible et leurs besoins
Réaliser des projets en partant de leurs intérêts et motivation en les impliquant
Travailler en réseaux pour montrer la diversité comme une richesse
Sensibilisation et mobilisation à travers les médias
Formation des acteurs travaillant avec les minorités migrantes et Roms
Echanger les bonnes pratiques
4) RECOMMANDATIONS SUPPLEMENTAIRES CONCERNANT LA LUTTE CONTRE LES
DISCRIMINATIONS ENVERS LES TSIGANES PAR UNE EXPERTE ETHNOLOGUE SUR L'IDENTITE
TSIGANE
Faire des expos photos avec vidéos et témoignages filmés de l'histoire tsigane, de la
façon dont ils sont en permanence discriminés et la façon dont "eux" voient les
"autres". On peut aussi imaginer des expos qui portent sur comment ils vivent au
quotidien (observations participantes et compréhension et pratique de la
langue) avec une mise en garde concernant les "propos" tenus par certains Tsiganes,
car ils ont pour habitude de se présenter eux mêmes qu'à travers les stéréotypes
négatifs dans le seul but de réaffirmer leur identité, en tant que Tsiganes d'une part
et en tant qu'un groupe particulier de Tsiganes d'autre part.
Eviter de calquer notre mode de vie, nos façons de faire, de dire, d'être et nos
"valeurs" sur leur mode de vie. Il faut toujours se demander quel est le sens et la
valeur des pratiques pour eux (c'est-à-dire, se décentrer pour éviter l'ethnocentrisme
et autoriser les comparaisons).
Formation par des organismes compétents des travailleurs sociaux, car sur le terrain
ce sont eux qui ont le plus de préjugés sur les Tsiganes et qui mettent en place des
actions souvent non adaptées.
Eviter d'ethniciser les activités (repas, rencontres, etc.) en ne se penchant que sur
une pratique particulière. Il est nécessaire de la replacer dans un ensemble plus
large, de la comparer avec d'autres cultures et de faire émerger une structure.

4. 3) RECOMMENDATIONS FOR NGOs
to get to know the target group and their needs by involving them
to work in networks to promote the richness of diversity
to increase public awareness et mobilize through the media
to train actors working with migrants and Roma
to exchange good practices
4) ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS CONCERNING THE FIGHT AGAINST DISCRIMINATION
TOWARDS GYPSIES BY AN ETHNOLOGIST SPECIALIZED IN GYPSY IDENTITY
Do photo exhibitions with videos and short testimonies from Gypsy history, the way
Gypsies are continuously discriminated against and the way "they" see "others". One
could also do exhibitions on their daily lives (participatory observation et
understanding and learning the language), but being aware of the "remarks" that
certain Gypsies make, because they often present themselves through negative
stereotypes with the only aim of reaffirming their identity as Gypsies on the one
hand and as a specific Gypsy sub-group on the other.
Avoid measuring their lifestyle against our lifestyle, our way of doing things, of
speaking, of being and our "values" (i.e. to stop being selfcentered in order to avoid
ethnocentrism and to allow for comparisons).
Training (by competent organizations) of social workers, because on the field these
are usually the ones that have the most prejudices against Gypsies and that often put
in place non-adapted measures.
Avoid "ethnicizing" different activities (meals, meetings, etc.) by focusing only on one
particular practice. The practice needs to be put in a lager context, comparing it with
other cultures to surface a structure.
