In the last couple of years, only the conflicts and the wars in the Middle East region forced millions of people moving from their land to Turkey, and to the European Union Nations. The reason of our project is to prevent any levels of hatred, anxiety, and the doubtfulness this huge religiously, ethnically and culturally different mass of of people can cause among the homogenous societies where they are trying to settle now or will be settled soon. For our project, we will choose Hatay as a model place where people with different religious, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds have been living together at peace for hundreds of years. We want to show our attendants how religiously, culturally, and ethnically diverse people have been living safely and peacefully without causing a single problem to each other. We want to prove this to our attendants how these people have been living in the same apartment buildings with respecting each other, walking on the same streets where Churches and Mosques are located next to each other, and going to pray and doing religious ceremonies safely without hating and/or hiding from each other. Objectivies The project is funded by the European Commission through the program Erasmus +, KA1 Youth Mobilities, a program of non-formal education for young people. At the final of the project the participants will receive a Youth Pass Certificate.
