Europe vitAMIn
23rd - 29th October 2010
Magenta, Italy

Youth exchange Europe vitAMIn aimed to create an awerness-raising of young people on migration issues in parallel to the priorities of European Year for Combating Poverty and Social Exclusion 2010.

We established a youth exchange on three vital concepts of Europe: Assimilation, Integration and Migration. We talked about how to integrate immigrants coming from other countries without assimilating their fundamental charateristics, such as religion, culture and so on.

Our massage to Europe Youth is that migration needs essential charateristcs such as to live in peace, to permit the integration of immigrants to their new lives rather than assimilating theit essence coming from their origin. In our project, we concentrated on these three cruical phenomena (assimilation, migration adn integration) to combat social exclusion in our context.

Partner organisations were from Italy, Turkey, Czech Republic and Spain.

Project was funded by the European Union programme Youth in Action.
