I would like to report one of the most extraordinary projects have ever participated named Youth versus racism: checkmate! Organized via Youth in Action program. All participants from 7 countries was gathered in the picturesque scenery of Nurri in Sardinia where were supposed to participate in different activities connected with topic of racism, xenophobia, exclusion etc. The aim of the project was to make people become aware of these issues and to fight against them. Since we had workshops in mixed groups consisted of people from different countries we had also great possibility to integrate each other and to develop our language skills. The intercultural evening was crucial point of project because we learn a lot about other countries, cultures, traditional dishes. On the project we also aimed to structure the production of a toolkit of games promoting human rights and fight against racism, xenophobes, religious bigotry and violence, which will be finally gathered in one book. I think all goals became achieved and everybody came back home with great memories.
