The main theme od the exchange is making a movie and information public about the exchange through web page. EACH PARTICIPANT WOULD CHOOSE group regarding his interests and knowledge he would like to get or improve. With the main activities we would try to encourage active participation, buy cipro generic social inclusion and equal opportunities. The movie was shown on the final event in local community in Slovenska Bistrica. The exchange was in Radenci close to Hungarian border. During the exchange we also discover the sourundings with sport activities and short trips. Participants worked, lived and spent time together meeting new cultures and breaking prejudices and stereotypes regarding other cultures and people. With the exchange we want to empower people with special needs and show them that they can play important role in today/s world and society. We would also like to encourage deeper understanding of being different, mutual understanding and tolerance in society. Through living and working together participants will learn a lot from each other and lose their prejudices to people with special needs.
