The objective of this project is to fight the rise in intolerance, to promote multiculturalism in Europe and to give young people new ways of expression in line with their reality.In order to do this, a transnational program, implemented between January and December 2016, will include training activities such as the "Youth European Jury ", the "Young MILLENIUM Reporters", the "Web-Docs Meetings" and trinational workshops in which projections and debates will be organized supervised by trained mediators.The project is aimed at young Belgian, Hungarian and Bulgarian people, curious, awaiting quality content on these themes, wishing to know more about the langage of contemporary documentary cinema, young people facing discrimination, with migrant background or/and minority groups as well as facilitators, trainers and managers of structures working in the field of youth and integration.The project methodology involves non-formal education and skills transfer.
