The theater has allowed us to focus our attention on the theme of migration and European awareness. The theme of photography was multiculturalism, that of dance were the stereotypes, the cinema was the sharing and the theme of cooking was culture.To judge the works, 11 jurors, including professionals, fans of various forms of art and representatives of the municipal administration of Terrasini. The impact on the development processes of the young participants was positive, as emerged from the participants themselves during the moments of self-assessment in which they were stimulated and encouraged to reflect and to express the skills acquired and/ or strengthened during their involvement in the activities. The ability to understand the other's point of view, the ability to listen, to analyze contents and proposals, to resolve conflicts, to create creative skills, to renegotiate and to cooperate, artistic skills and organizational skills, are some of the strengthened skills during the activities. The participants enriched their knowledge on the Erasmus + program and strengthened their awareness of the history of Europe, on the role that art and culture played in building community identity and the traditions of the countries involved in the project. The organizations involved in the project, as emerged during the moments of self-assessment, have been able to strengthen their organizational skills, cooperatives and training, experimenting with their methodologies and knowing and acquiring new ones. Organizations will benefit from the growth processes of their participants, in that, the adoption of a methodological system that favored the participation and the direct involvement of the participants will contribute to trigger the processes of capacitation which will result the diffusion of these values, the revival and re-launching of interest in the issues addressed in the project, in their own countries. It is also hoped for that stimuli proposed by the project, produce in other target groups, the desire to carry out other projects with similar themes; that local institutions elaborate measures and / or institutional initiatives to support youth mobility activities; that the local realities of the third sector propose similar projects and / or initiatives to promote youth participation; And the local community will receive benefits in terms of increased community spirit and active citizenship.
