Participant profile:
The youngsters should come from the local community of the partner organization, but that shouldn’t be a limiting factor, so if there are youngsters from other regions, they are more than welcome. There will be 5 participants and one group leader from each partner organization. Participants will be between the ages of 18 and 30 years old, and the leader should be 18+ with a stable link to the sending organization and an active role in it, preferably a youth worker or at least an experienced member. Participants should have a great willingness to be a part of a multicultural group. Previous experience in dance is not required but participants should show initiative for learning new things and working with other young people. All partners should do their best to create gender balanced teams (3+3 including group leaders).
