I got my Erasmus in Greece two years ago and wanted to return, so now I’m doing my master\u2019s degree at the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens on migration. When I heard about this project of SolidarityNow, I wanted to participate because I thought it was a very good opportunity for me to find some answers.\u00a0 It is very difficult to see the problems in your community and feel powerless to do something due to lack of the appropriate tools on how to run a project and do something that will have a positive impact on other people\u2019s daily life. So that’s why I took part!<\/p>\n What will you keep with you from the Empower YOUth experience? <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n At the end of the day when you have the right tools, and you learn how to build your project it can be very easy to turn your ideas into concrete actions.<\/p>\n Furthermore, when I meet other young people from completely different backgrounds who might live in very difficult conditions, they may live in camps for example, but still have the courage to give something back to the society, then I keep the hope; we are not alone in this world.<\/p>\n What was the highlight for you during the project?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n I’m impressed by the story of my classmate, Marinos, who is deaf and wants to create an organization to support other deaf people. His motivation to communicate was amazing! Even if we were struggling to understand each other we all tried very patiently to share our thoughts and fully communicate our ideas.<\/p>\n Would you like to share anything else with us?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Yes, I think it is very important if young people could participate in more programs like this where they could meet others with the same needs and ask for support and encouragement. Sometimes, it can be very depressing to realize the inequalities and injustice in the world, but there\u2019s always the opposite side of people who want to offer for the common good. And if we are all united, we can do good and take courage from one another.<\/p>\n *****<\/p>\n The project \u201cEmpower YOUth\u201d<\/strong> is implemented within the framework of the Active citizens fund by SolidarityNow in partnership with Norwegian NGO\u00a0<\/em>NorSensus Mediaforum<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n The Active citizens fund in Greece<\/a> is supported through a \u20ac 13.5 m grant from Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway as part of the EEA Grants<\/a> 2014 \u2013 2021.
