The Welcome Hostel

YEU Cyprus will be represented by five young Cypriots in the Youth Exchange "The Welcome Hostel" which will take part in September in Italy.

Within the public local event “Fiera e Festa della Madonna dei Martiri” in the city of Molfetta, groups of young Europeans will share activities and workshops about the issue of immigrants and welcoming. Many foreigners and street vendors work in this local holiday and they are hosted in a “Welcoming Hostel” with their families.

The objectives of this youth Exchange are to reflect about the issue of immigrants and the work condition of the street vendors, to help the immigrants to get integrated with the local and European community through meeting different cultures, to develop new non-formal and intercultural competences and to fight against discrimination and racism.
