Day 4 - Sharing is caring



We are on our way
 Day 4
 Fourth day started with rain and then started snowing.
 But it didn’t changed our mood, conversely some of us were
 happy to see snow in Estonia.







Our topic continued and we had fun with our morning cafeteria.
    After our morning session we watched movie. Someone felt sadness,
for someone it was okay. For conclusion, this movie was connected
with topic and it is good that our trainers had shown it for us.





Finally, it’s SAUNA TIME!
We were talking and having fun.

Best way to relax after hard day :)

The general aim of our project is to combat hate speech online and offline.

Specific objectives are:

  • To create new initiatives on local and international level to combat hate speech.

36 participants have come together for this project from 10 different countries (United Kingdom, Greece, Romania, Italy, Portugal, Bulgaria, Spain, Slovakia, Germany and Estonia).

We plan to use non-formal methods, such as group work, role-play, simulations, reflection, online research, movie, work in pairs, practical workshops, activity in town etc. After the project participants will carry out workshops in their local communities.
