Summary what was training course about:

Town Kikinda is the administrative centre of the North Banat District. Kikinda is situated in an area that is rich in traces of ancient cultures and civilizations. Numerous archaeological finds testify that people lived here even for a period of seven thousand years ago. However, the continuity of life that is often disturbed and interrupted. People are settled
and went, stayed and disappeared, all depending on the numerous and different historical circumstances.

Our project was designed to empower active young leaders to act for social inclusion and building of social cohesion in their local communities by learning and providing trainings on soft skills related to cultural diversity as a basis of building safe and respectful surroundings for young individuals from different backgrounds.
