As part of our project activities, the Youth Exchange held in Podgorica, Montenegro , concluded yesterday. Hosted by AYDM the event brought together young people with disabilities from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Cyprus, Italy, Malta, and Montenegro.
This Exchange provided an opportunity to test the activities we developed in the Didactic Manual, a key outcome of our project. By doing so, we equipped youth workers and young people with tools, knowledge, and skills to include individuals with disabilities through informal activities, promoting equality.
The diverse range of disabilities, languages, cultures, and customs among participants fostered intercultural dialogue and the exchange of experiences. As a result, everyone left better prepared and enriched with new knowledge.
In the framework of the Youth Exchange, which is currenty underway, as a highlight we can point out the Conference on improving the position of people with disabilities, with a special emphasis on young people with disabilities in society, organized by the Association of Youth With Disabilities of Montenegro (AYDM).
