Respect to that, we believe that both the university network
and the European NGOs take a key role to support and
facilitate the integration between the two educational
experiences.
The pilots project intends to turn to young, Hebrews and
Arabs, and to other ethic or religious groups living in
Upper Galilee. The young people will be lead to live in a
situation of Comuna by staying together at the same house
for one year, by participating the educational path all
together and by daily experimenting, in an active and
creative way, the necessary formalities for the pacific
cohabitation in the mutual and democratic respect and of
every person.
This project proposal carries out from the awareness that
the middle-east area has got an urgent need to achieve a
society where the young people succeed in being protagonists
of their life and succeed in going out from the uneasiness
and suffering condition which the war violent conflict
produces in both the parts.
There is need to rediscover and to strengthen each person’s
deep motivations which allows people to survive also under
conditions of strong stress and danger, to find the
energies, the vitality and the enthusiasm, but also the
critical and constructive reflection on the present problem
of the reality, and so to realize projects within the local
contexts of life, taking a social and an educational
commitment .
The
young people will be educated to get in touch with various
educational experiences like: arrangement of intercultural
events, support and enrichment strategies for children of
disadvantaged families, integrated supports in the schools,
assistance to weaker pupils, activities in the youth
movements, activities of not formal education with adults
oriented to the local human development and the
individualization of the gender knowledge potentialities.
The Beresheet LaShalom Comuna is a development project of
the local human resources that will be able to give a
regenerative push to the inhabitants of the area where the
project acts. Thanks to the action developed by motivated
young people, in hold collaboration with the local
community, new ways of cooperation and cohabitation could be
found, so that to find new pacific resolution to the
conflicts, through not conventional educational actions as
the art, the play, the mutual aid and the exploration of
different cultures.
