project financed by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union
The consortium of 6 partners is implementing the second international activity of the Inclusive Decisions (IncluDe) Youth Participation. It is going to be an international conference in Brussels, “Touching the Core”, financed by the European Union and developed by Asociatia Babilon Travel in partnership with with The Social and Medical Services Directorate Cluj (Romania), Ministry of Social Developments, labour, and Welfare of Curacao, Fundashon Pro Bista (Curacao), Projekte Vullnetare Nderkombetare (Albania) and Municipality of Lushnje (Albania).
The activity aims to increase social inclusion and accessibility among Visually Impaired Youngsters through their participatory involvement in public institutions. Its focus is on empowering Visually Impaired People to develop valuable skills and knowledge based on fundamental values such as inclusion, accessibility, equity, education through active participation, access to culture, democracy, and human rights.
To achieve its objectives, Touching the Core will gather a total of 15 young VIP participants (5/country) selected from the local community of VIP youngsters; and 3 decision makers (1/country), for a conference that will take place in Brussels, Belgium and will create an open space for interaction with members of the European Parliament (MEPs) and European councilors. Participants will be able to present their ideas, engage in debates, and collaborate in workshops.
All the activities are held in the Erasmus+ spirit and are based on non-formal education methods and tools in an inclusive and adapted way, considering the presence of visually impaired/blind participants (study visits, debatings, free discussions, reflections, presentations etc.).
