ACTIVITIES 

Another creative workshop. Here we worked in mixed groups again, talked about typical feasts in our countries - Christmas or Easter in the Czech Republic and ramadan or Independence day in Turkey. We prepared project posters and presented them to the other groups.

Henna night - traditions about Turkish marriages and a video-presentation of Antalya and Turkey and the activities of Euroteam Turkey, this was the second cultural evening.

We worked in mixed groups and discussed religious traditions in our countries.

This workshop was focused on seraching for similarities and differences between the Czech and Turkish culture and way of life.

Both teams prepared presentation of their culture - presentations, role-plays, short films, quizes and dances. The first cultural evening was held by the Czech team.

We talked about traditional games and played some team-building games, too.

Despite rain we took a walk in the village to learn more about the place where the project is being held and focused on traditions and village life.

Before coming to Řeka both teams prepared project posters about how they see their partners and presented them at the workshop. Then we discussed the prejudices and stereotypes.

For most participants this project was the first youth exchange in their life. During this activity they learned more about opportunities of the Erasmus+ programme and about Youthpass.

Traditional activity of a youth exchange - what are the participants afraid of at the beginning of the project and what are they looking forward to?
