"<< Objectives >>The project SAHS will take place in Ragusa (Sicily, Italy) with the partake of 28 participants plus 3 coaches to be held by 7 associations from as many European countries. The project is designed to host youth people(18-35),and it will deal with journalism, defense of human rights, media, youth working and local impact on political issues. The project SAHS was planned for 7 participants with fewer opportunities, one for each association. The project aims to involve; volunteers and members of NGOs, aspiring journalists, youth workers, media trainers, immigration experts and humanitarian law, staff who work closely with refugees and victims of human traficking ,minorities group rights and fight against discrimination. By implementing the project and developing the various activities, Generation Zero wants to give to SAHS participants tools and knowledge to recognize a fake news. In order to reach this goal the project wants to tech to the participants which news can be defined as false or inaccurate. We intend to provide participants with a series of experiences on ethnicity, race and safety in order to analyze and understand them at best, all this with a series of non-formal education activities. The project focuses on specific objectives that aim to achieve competences . The first objective is to diffuse among participants awareness of the critical use of the media, to understand their power and manipulative use. Ideally we intend to support integration and counter the false myth of the immigrant seen as a social danger. Another of our specific intention is to combat the myths about religions in order to promote the idea of diversity and pluralism as a cultural richness for every EU country. Following this idea, we want to accomplish another specific purpose, that is to give to the participants the requirements of non-formal education that, better than others,allow us to filter and understand the news that often goes in a generic way by the media.This is the way in which it is possible to promote the spread of ideas of solidarity and pluralism between different cultures, which is linked to the development of a sense of belonging to the European community. Our project is strongly linked to the founding objectives of Erasmus +. In particular we share with the program the macro-objective of pushing young people to active participation, as reported by European cooperation in the youth field (2010-18). We share specific objectives, such as the participation of young people in democratic dialogue through the sound and punctual use of information resources within the EU. From our point of view, young people who are more aware of their role and of the responsible use of information source, may be less vulnerable to manipulation for purposes, other than informing European citizens correctly. As general objectives, the SAHS project aims to develop the capacities of the participants with a view to improving; participation in social and civic life, inclusion, the fight against racism and stereotypes, improving the social and social skills of young people. In this context, peer education activities will help learners who will also be allowed to experience the anguish of a migrant traveling the path of the sea. This will allow us to tackle current and deeply felt issues in a controlled and mediated way, even within the countries of which the organizations are a part. The idea of welcoming the participants of some specific areas of Europe will allow us to broaden the spectrum of visions and ideas in order to best combat the most disparate stereotypes about Jews, Muslims, Sinti and migrants. The choice of organizations exactly follows the search for a partnership of associations that have been implementing actions and projects aimed at the active participation of young people aimed at the fight against discrimination and hate speech.<< Activities >>The activities to be implemented during the project are a symmetrical alternation between cognitive activities of facts and myths, combined with dynamic activities, that will involve the participants about the ideal re-elaboration of the phenomena addressed. The expected number of participants is 28 participants divided into 7 associations, to which 3 trainers / facilitators must be added, made available by the GZ host organization. In the very first hours of the project, we planned to set rules and regulations that will help us during the activities and divide participants into working groups, according to the dictates of peer education. ""Come and meet us"" will permit ourselves to ""leaving the box ""in order to build a joyful and relaxed environment. This moment allows us to outline a collaborative, healthy and profitable discussion. This activity will be fundamental for the facilitator considering the aspects of interest participants, taking an overview of groups and dynamics: the activity ""Expectations, fears, contributions"" will allow the participants to talk about their concerns regarding this project, their fears about the various activities of the project, the expectations of the participants will be analyzed in this regard to the educational results of the project. The facilitator will ask each participant to define its fears and expectations at a group moment, they will be asked to define their uncertainties anonymously. The purpose of the activity will be to pass the participants from mere users to active participants, interested in the themes and educational purposes of the project. Certainly the heart of the project begins with the composition of the Learning buddies and family groups; The vision of the Mockumentary will allows us to enter the topic of information manipulation and the importance of the conscious use of the media. The fake documentary will deal with the myths about stereotypes on Muslims, Jews and immigrants, presenting everything as verified and manipulative news. Here will begin the guided discussion activities among those present. Immediately afterwards the perspectives on facts and myths begin; dividing the participant into stabilized tasks of the answers to the questions proposed by the facilitators into 7 groups. Among these myths we will talk about media, politics and various forms of discussion. The discussion will be reduced to 5 points before defining the basic knowledge needed by an interlocutor when it comes to deal with media. The project also includes a lab/visits for cultural and cognitive purposes, such as visits to the old part of Ragusa and moments of relationship and cultural exchange. With this in mind, the ""City game of Ragusa"" activity is aimed at allowing participants to discover the beauties of the capital of the iblei. Remember that each activity includes moments of final analysis and guided re-proposal to the participants, which will gradually allow them to establish a communicative growth and to define more contact among the participants. In the following days of the project a guided tour is inserted to a reception center for migrants, where participants will be shown the vicissitudes and dangers that migrants face in their Mediterranean journey, as well as obviously showing the discrepancies between media coverage of the phenomenon and data and entries real and verified of the phenomenon. Through the technique of the Living Library the most complex part will be touched; that is the emotional relationship of the participants with the direct suffering of a migrant, this will serve us to feed the debate and to ask those present about the relationship of the media in terms of political choices on immigration and human rights. The following day, a moment of analysis will help us pass to the dynamics of the ""seven veils""; or a guided exercise of reaction to discrimination. The dynamics will allow us to make participants understand what it means for a young person to be discriminated . The activity aims to give those present a series of practical tools, arguments and information aimed at fighting a process of marginalization and discrimination in the bud. In the last few days, other dynamics will be addressed, such as the ""mechanisms of oppression"" and ""four quadrants"", which will introduce us to the point of view of a young man at risk of radicalization. This cognitive process on discrimination will end with the final activities aimed at ""healing"" the wounds of hate speech by implementing activities such as; ""strategies to break the mechanisms"", ""letter to a person I have discriminated against"", three things I would do again and three things I would not do "". These will allow us to close the circle on the goal of making the participants aware and able to distinguish the messages distorted by true information. After that will follow the explanation of the follo- up activities and the moments of delivery of the youth passes, and the final greetings.<< Impact >>The project aims to give participants tools, information, and media skills, news on hate speech, propaganda, myths about ethnic, racial and religious discrimination, human rights and minority defense. The package of perviste activities allows participants to start in non-formal education and peer education. The primary objective of the project is to understand the role of youth workers in the field of information, and to understand and improve the ability of young people to discern false news from true information, avoiding that these give rise to discrimination phenomena. The project will mainly focus on the category of refugees and migrants, with the related religious and racial problems that often accompany the discourse on the phenomenon. Participants will be guided by non-formal education methods that will allow them to understand how manipulated news leads to, more or less direct, forms of discrimination. The expected impact regards, first of all, the organizations themselves, which will have the opportunity to try their hand at a formative moment, where they will be able to know even better the possibilities of the Erasmus + and SVE program. The organizations will test their organizational and managerial skills in contributing to the implementation of the project. Another significant result is to build lasting and profitable partnerships and forms of informal contact also for the future, especially in order to implement projects concerning these issues, to establish forms of friendship and operational solidarity and to strengthen contact between members of increasingly diversified and efficient partnerships , in achieving the Erasmus + objectives. The training activities will put the associations in a position to create, in the countries of origin, opportunities and moments aimed at involving young people on the problems of discrimination, racism, defense of minorities and active citizenship on political and media issues. This will allow the group leaders to improve their knowledge on the topics covered, allowing them to raise awareness among young people. By becoming aware of new methods and information on the fight against fake news and discrimination for second or third generation foreign citizens, organizations will be able to activate networks and implement projects capable of creating effective dissemination processes. The impact on participants aims to provide ""soft skills"" concerning the exaltation of feelings of altruism, pluralism, intercultural and interreligious dialogue and on the founding values of the United Europe. These abilities aim to make the participants more active and more aware in order to make them more inclined to make themselves available to activities aimed at positively influencing society, fighting hate speech and racism. SAHS intends to provide the less experienced participants with elements of understanding of the media and the migratory phenomenon of the Mediterranean trafficking, as well as promoting Youth working projects on project themes, often treated in a way that is not very responsible by traditional and non-traditional media. The activities will allow the Youth Workers to expand their baggage in terms of tools, dynamics, project types and training of young people. The expected local impact aims to give visibility in frontier territories, such as those of partner countries, to projects on social issues and to make known to new associations new methods and solutions. The aim is to spread the European implementation and design methodologies and to make known the activities and the application methods of the Erasmus + program, providing a concrete example to the local third sector realities,in each country represented in the partnership. SAHS wants to make local media aware of a correct and responsible use of the media and a more constructive reading of immigration and its complications. The aim is to provide the various local plans with a moment of encounter and contact between different locations on the continent in order to ideally bring them closer together, strengthening the role and visibility of associations through the benefits of volunteering, while promoting intra-European knowledge of the associations involved. At European and international level, with the help of the other partner organizations of the project, the impact that the project will have at the local and national level will be extended to the communities of belonging, through the network of participating partners that will be created at the end of project. This will happen in order to allow the debate around the participation of young people in society and the fight against extremist ideologies throughout Europe, this will be possible through the organization in the countries of workshops, meetings, articles, online information material, connected to the project; so as to further strengthen the impact and dissemination."
