Minsk Shapers Hub implements first Erasmus+ youth training course in Belarus

Although Erasmus+ started in early 2014.  On September 2-8 the training course “My role as a Global Citizen” took place in Minsk with the Hub’s organizational assistance in partnership with the Italian NGO “Free Minds in Action” and Belarusian NGO “Youth Initiative.” The Italian national agency Erasmus+ supported the event.
The training gathered 30 young professionals from Italy, Czech Republic, Georgia, Slovenia, and Belarus. During the training, the participants heard lectures on international relations and migration, developed their debating skills on the actual international challenges in the simulation game and prepared short videos on tolerance and global citizenship concept. At intercultural evenings participants enjoyed national team presentations and tried the foreign cuisine.
Andrei Yeliseyeu, Minsk Shapers Hub member, says: “Until recently Belarusians only took part in the Erasmus+ events abroad. Our hub is interested in promoting greater Belarus’ openness towards cooperation with our international partners. We greet country’s new accession to the European Higher Education Area, and will keep working on international facilitation exchange”.
