“Playground Europe” is a multilateral youth exchange taking place in Maribor. The youth exchange is a 7-day programme focussing on the topics of Intercultural learning and European citizenship through playing. Before leaving for the exchange the participants will prepare through a session in their local organisation (promoter). The programme of the youth exchange itself is a combination of games, creativity workshops, cultural visits and outdoor education. At the youth exchange the participants will create a promotional tool of the project, which they will disseminate after the exchange is over, motivating new young people to take part in future exchanges.
In total this youth exchange will bring together 36 young people and 9 group leaders from 9 different European countries. This mixture of people and cultures is the basis for the learning experience. All participants are active in local youth work organisations as volunteers, leading leisure-time activities for children and youth. By offering these volunteers the opportunity of being participants in a youth exchange we link this project with the european year of volunteering.
