“How to survive the multicultural society” a practical training for young idealists

"Unity of cultural diversity is and always was one of the strongest factors of human nature’s further development. But still no matter how far we go into science and Mother Nature, there are still dozens of factors which represent barriers for effective “human race” communication process. The training course was made with rational approach and teaching methods to support participants not get confused and actually “how to survive in multicultural society”.

We were from different corners of the word. Indeed each of us was different from others but for none of us that weren’t strange as none of us was feeling more special as all of us was special in our own way.

This September Armenian Progressive Youth NGO and JUB International organized a Training Course "How to Survive the Multicultural Society" in Yerevan, Armenia. Considering the very recent extremist movements in Europe, raising xenophobia and Islamophobia, we have gathered active young people, youth workers and activists to discuss the questions of multicultural society, inter-religious and intercultural tolerance and to think about some practical tools how to fight discrimination and combat extremism, which nowadays threatens democracies all over the world. Check out our movie and learn about the results of the project!
