Dance for Peace


Dance for Peace

Puntas de Calnegre & Lorca (Murcia) Spain

Cazalla Intercultural

10th - 18th March 2014



This project combined workshops about peace education, conflict transformation, non-violent communication and dance. The exchange helped participants understand what role young people can

have in their communities and in the society to create and maintain a peaceful coexistence. The theoretical part of the main topic gave the group a deep perception of the concepts of peace education and encourage participants to act through the dance. The group worked together, combining the potential and opportunities to share and learn from each other.

Cazalla Intercultural

“Dance for Peace� was a youth exchange within the framework of the Youth in Action Programme organized by Ayuntamiento de Lorca with a collaboration of Cazalla Intercultural.


Cazalla Intercultural

The final result of the exchange was a wonderful dance performance that was shown to the local community of Lorca. The show was a great tool for raising awareness and promoting youth participation in making social change.

Albergue Juvenil


Cazalla Intercultural

The VIPs in action project was about inclusion and empowerment of youth with fewer opportunities with competences in order to enter the labor market and to provide support, motivation and knowledge to their peers. The youth exchange was within the framework of the Youth in Action Programme – Action 4.4 - of the European Union.


Cazalla Intercultural

During the Exchange 35 young people from 7 different countries worked and shared experiences on different topics: learning opportunities with different European Programmes (Erasmus+), talking about discrimination, identity, intercultural dialogue, learning through games, alternatives and solutions for youth unemployment. They also created a magazine that will be a compilation of best practices for youth activities, which will be spread through our social networks.


On this occasion, our organization received the prize „Lorca por la igualdad” (Lorca for the equality) from the City Concil. Our organization was awarded this prize for the constant commitment and the attention given to issues connected with gender differences.

On 8th March, the International Women's Day, Cazalla organized a dance event called „Bailando por la igualdad”. All the people danced on the international movement’ s music "one billion raising" The protagonists of the event were the women of Lorca.

CAZALLA'S CURRENT PROJECTS


AIMS OF THE JOB SHADOWING ACTIVITIES To see in practice learning activities for young people implementing by partner organisations in Europe (for Asian Organisations) or in Asia (by European organisations) and to see learning approaches and methods “in action” on the spot.

DATES From April till September 2014

Cazalla Intercultural

„LSD – Learning for Sustainable Development” is a project planned in a way to stimulate the mobility and involvement of young people from ten European and Asian countries. This interaction between young people through preliminary planned activities will definitely increase their knowledge, understanding and accepting of diverse cultural values and at the same time will strengthen their sense of adhering to common human principles, belonging to bigger European or Asian societies while at the same time bearing all the specific features of the personal, local or national culture to which they belong. The first phase of this project was a TC for facilitators which took place between 3rd and 11th January in Coy (Murcia), Spain. The next phase of LSD are jobshadowing activities in Europe and Asia. Cazalla Intercultural is currently hosting a Chinese job shadower for 3 weeks.


DATE: from 10th till 30th April 2014) Ren Hui (from Beijing, China) has come for an internship to Cazalla Intercultural that will last 21 days. The aim of this internship is to exchange ideas, skills and competences, to propose creative and innovative methods of work, as well as to create the basis for further cooperation between organizations in the field of youth work.

During three weeks she will be directly involved in the organization’s activities such as the selection of the EVS volunteers that will go to China in the second half of this year, presentations about China, workshops and activities with the local youth. After coming back to China she will be involved in the local work and she will implement the project ideas developed during her internship in Spain.

When April – December Who Iuliia from Ukraine

Cazalla Intercultural

The project’s name is Learning from violence and it tries to fight for social inclusion of the young immigrants and young people from Lorca who are at a risk of the social exclusion in the municipality of Lorca (Spain), through informal training activities as well as leisure and free time activities in order to promote fellowship, mutual knowledge and values’ education.


I want to study Spanish to be able to communicate with people. This will give me the possibility to find good friends and learn about the traditions and culture of this country. But what is most important for me, I want to develop myself. I want to grow up spiritually, culturally and morally. I have to change my usual life: In Ukraine I had only my usual daily routines like job, home, job, home again and again. I wasn't so self-confident to change something. So with this project I really want to change myself first, to become more open-minded and to start building my real life position.
