What is the exchange about?
SOCIAL INCLUSION. EMPOWERMENT. ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP.
How do these sound to you?
In this youth exchange 33 young people living with and without disability will learn to-
gether how to become active members of their community and society and act for so-
cial inclusion. We will discuss social issues, work with how these influence us and how
can someone take action.
Participants will also take an active role and work together in planning and implementing
a high-visibility public event at the end of the exchange to promote inclusion and in-
form the society about disabilities.
Non-formal learning methods will be used all through the project. These will help partici-
pants to develop their proactivity, self-confidence, organizational skills, assertiveness,
work in team, creativity, communication skills.
As the follow up of the project participants will use what they learnt—the task will be to
organise a local event in their community to promote inclusion.
BREAKING STEREOTYPES—DIRECTOR’S CUT www.egyutthato.eu
What will you learn? During the 9 days YE participants will learn about:
Identifying and expressing their own needs and the needs of their commu-
nity
Efficient interpersonal and public communication
Social activism and advocacy
Steps of implementing a project/event about social inclusion
The program is focused on self-knowledge, social roles, active participation, active citi-
zenship, volunteering and independent living and through these topics we develop social
competences, tolerance, sensivity, assertivity, communication skills and tools, time-,
stress-, and project management knowledge.
Our association provides barrier-free environment and professional personal assistan-
ce during the entire duration of the program.

Before the youth exchange Selection—Partner organisations in each country (see page nr. 5) are responsible for the
selection and preparation of participants. Please, contact your local organisation to apply

Advanced Planning Visit (APV) will be between 2nd-4th April in Budapest, Hungary.
The selected group leader of each country should attend the meeting.
Preparatory meeting for the national teams—dates will be set by the partner organisa-
tions in each country.
TASKS BEFORE THE YOUTH EXCHANGE
As preparation, each team has to record a short interview with a chosen person from their
local communities. This person should be living with disability and someone who they
can look up to as a role model. Questions of the interview should cover the story of this
person, information about their disability, difficulties and highlights in their life connect-
ed to their disability. More details and supporting instructions will be provided after selec-
tion of the participants. This task is not optional and is an important part of the exchange,
the interviews will be presented by each team during the program.

Follow-up and dissemination
On the last day of programme an Open Space session will be organized for participants
to plan activities for their local communities, e.g.: flasmob, campaign on Facebook, video
campaign on Youtube, debate event etc.
After the YE all of the participant will have to organize one of these activities in their own
community (e.g. school), in the street, or in thee internet), with the support of partner or-
ganization. Follow up is a very important and integral part of our project. The teams will
need to write a short summary and take some photos about activities.
During the YE participant will make a short documentary film with interviews. We’ll de-
cide together on the structure and the content. Partners are obliged to use their own
means to disseminate the outcomes of the project via online/offline channels.

limitation is a difficulty encountered by an individual in executing a task or action; while a
participation restriction is a problem experienced by an individual in involvement in life
situations” (WHO)

dapest, and we also planned the daily programme taking the special needs into account.

ing, bathing, personal hygiene and meals based on the needs of the participants.

Venue and logistics The accommodation is going to be „Fecskepalota”, which is situated in the hilly area of
Gánt, 60 km from Budapest. The venue is completely barrier free, 4 beds per room.
The venue has a special room for those with serious limitations.
More photos and information: https://www.facebook.com/fecskepalota
Transport from Budapest to the venue will be arranged by our association for the whole
group when the rest of the travel arrangements are fixed (bus, plane tickets). For domes-
tic travel we withhold 40 EUR from each participant’s travel budget granted by E+.
For the details, please see the Financial Guidelines document.
The youth exchange will be at the end of April. With recent changing tendencies in the
weather it is good to expect good and bad too. Closer to the date and before packing,
check the weather forecast and prepare accordingly.
There is only little infrastructure in Gánt—no shops, no ATM-s, no tobacco shops. Prepare
according to this, but we are likely arrange shop runs to the nearby village so participants
are not totally cut-off from their cravings :)
