"Project ""Inclusion on stage"" is a joint iniative of 4 organizations from Sweden, Poland, Ghana and Kenya. With this project we are going to acquire knowledge and skills to participants about creation, implementation and usage of new, innovative tools based on theatre of the oppressed for efficient inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities.The planed target group in this project are participants that are working with young with fewer opportunities people between age of 18 and 30 (ethnical, religious minorities, with early school leaving, social and economical problems) providing them practical experience of drama and theatre of oppressed methods.This 24-months project aims to create new, innovative methods and tools for social, economical and ethnical inclusion of youth people based on theatre of the oppressed and arrange all of them into open educational resources. Within our collaboration we are planning to implement 2 transnational meetings (kick off in Poland and final evaluation in Ghana), and 4 mobility of youth workers (in every participating country). Between every single phase all partners will be ""testing"" created tools and methods in their local communities. For final products we are going to create: an on-line platform with an innovative course based on theatre of oppressed methods, white board scribbing presenting the main idea behind all tools, sets of 4 ""regional"" reports and 1 general one from ""testing"" phase of activities, brochures from every sinle mobility with detailed description of methods used, youthube channel with tutorials of recorded tools and final project's movie. Every single activity will gather 20 youth workers. All planned objectives of this project are realistic and achievable. All our objectives are SMART Specific.Measurable.Achievable.Realistic.Timebound. Through the realization of the objectives of this project we want to through theatre of the oppressed stimulate young people's spirit of initiative, their ability to think imaginatively and originally, to promote through intercultural facilitation methodology based on theatre of the oppressed transnational non-formal learning mobility between Programme and Partner Countries, especially targeting young people with fewer opportunities, with a view to improving participants' level of competences and fostering their active participation in society, to encourage participants commitment to a more sustainable growth, promotion of way of active social participation and a way to acquire knowledge and skills useful for persons' professional development, to create participant multipliers who will implement the knowledge and skills acquired during this project in their local communities and to increase the capacity of the organizations that are working on the field of empowering youth by theatrical and drama methods. By accomplishing these tasks we ensure that all what is planned in the project will be achieved."

"The project is finalized to foster cooperation and exchanges in the field of youth between 5 Partners EU Countries :Eu Diaspora Council, Sweden,Soma Forengin Rf Finland,London Placement Academy UK, Cooperazione Sud per l'Europa Italy, Asociacion Cultural Integra,Spain and 2 Partner from region 11 ACP :Soma View Kenya, Kenya and Putland Network Forum Somalia on the prevention of violent radicalization, xenophobia and racism.The project contributes to promoting the development of social and civic and intercultural competences and critical thinking in young people and also to face radicalization, discrimination, racism and violence.Helps to fill these gaps through the dissemination of knowledge and the construction of these tools will take place through the collection of experiences, needs and proposals of young workers working in different countries (Finland, Sweden, Italy, Spain, Kenya and Somalia) and in various areas that concern the world of young people (schools, cultural associations, NGOs, youth centers, reception centers for young migrants, etc The project intends to create a tool ""Brochure Youth worker against radicalization"" for useful to youth work, develop and convey messages aimed at deconstructing extremist propaganda in frontline work with young people (new migrants, immigrants and young natives) and fostering integration through inter-religious dialogue and intercultural knowledge based on the knowledge of the other.The Brochure,OER, expects to achieve the following results:- implementation of an innovative methodology to improve educational and preventing activity for young people in a multicultural context- enhancement of the skill of youth workers in preventing radicalization and in promoting the integration and culture of interreligious and intercultural dialogue- enhancement of involvement and participation of young people in social activities within an international dimension- promotion of the dialogue among youngs in a peer to peer framework- reduction of the phenomenon of radicalization in Europe and in Kenya and Somalia.The project is aimed directly at youth workers realizes a functional educational and pedagogical tool for the promotion of European values: respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality,tolerance the rule of law and respect for human rights, including the rights of persons belonging to minorities . The project also forecasts the participation of 45 youth workers and 2 Faciliators in the transnational mobility activity."

The European context of this project is economies providing few jobs for young people since the 2008 recession, barriers to higher education, and populist politics with harsh side-effects for new Europeans. It is difficult for a young person to find purpose in this context, and to get drawn into radicalization. On the African continent, risk of radicalisation may be zero in one country and deter travelers in another. Youth are bribed/blackmailed into radical groups to fill ranks, or triggered into radicalism by perceptions of injustice, hopelessness, religiously-inspired indignation, hunger, and dislocation.Underlying this project is the EC-funded Radicalization Awareness Network’s finding that the best way to prevent radicalization in young people is to divert their attention and engage them in self-reinforcing activities; also stresses the need for closer links between local government and youth NGOs youth workers covering the “last mile” to the radicalism candidate.“Horizontal Youth Engagement to Prevent Radicalization” (HYEPR) is the natural result of something common to all of the NGOs listed here: deep engagement in youth work, and equally deep concern with growing numbers of young people who are having identity crises, or who cannot find their place in the European economies of today, facing high levels of unemployment with few opportunities to become apprenticed, and reduced social services to support them in the effort to find that place and that identity.HYEPR aims to build up the capacities of European and East African youth work NGOs so they can face youth radicalization with innovative and attractive tools, resilient management, and a sense of their ethical boundaries. In order to meet this objective, this project draws into partnership the most dedicated NGOs doing radicalization prevention, and the most innovative informal education designers.The partners research all tools used in youth work in the 7 countries, also letting peer NGOs know about this anti-radicalization initiative. Partners present tools, groups learn how they work, and select the 21 tools and activities for the Meta-Toolkit, accompanied by a best practices Handbook for global dissemination and trainings. 28 youth workers do intensive training to become Meta-Toolkit trainers who will train 560 other youth workers in their countries. Project leverages mobility and capacity-building events to improve linkage and local government’s recognition of the value of youth work. Five international events/mobilities over 24 months allow partners to help each other strengthen organization, improve governance, fundraising and capacity for innovative thinking. This project generates intense phases of group activity to turn partners into a pioneer group of informal learning tailored to radicalization.

The project is developed based on the actual needs of the target groups VET providers and stakeholders active in the green energy sector in African countries.
