There is no time like the present to ensure young people have every opportunity to contribute to their communities, promote their heritage, participate in decision making and challenge the threats that they and their community may face.
The young people involved in this EU-LAC-MUSEUMS Bi-Regional Youth Exchange have demonstrated their capability of engaging in heritage, discussing the problems their communities face and finding solutions for the future. Through EU-LAC-MUSEUMS, each young person has recognised working within a bi-regional basis can be both be a transformative and valuable experience, discovering that although they are miles apart each individual and community faces similar issues but together they can find common answers through heritage-based activities.
This booklet shares a selection of the experiences from the Bi-Regional Youth Exchange between Europe and Latin America.
