Summary of Action
Youth association Dwagulu Dekkente vzw and world citizenship organisation Equator vzw join forces on the occasion of a youth exchange between Senegal and Flanders (by Dwagulu Dekkente, city of Sint-Niklaas) to take the youngsters on an awareness-raising adventure around global needs, climate migration, and agroecology.
A diverse group of 50 or so young people are thoroughly prepared for their exchange, while also learning techniques on how to be a reporter themselves to show the importance of their exchange and international cooperation through filmed experiences and testimonies.
The young people direct, compile the footage into short, typical educational films, into a compilation film about the whole journey gone through and together with professional reporters into a documentary.
With these products, they will set up an exhibition, go to witness, and guide film screenings in various places with the aim of showing young people and other audiences the importance of international communication and cooperation, encouraging them to change their thinking and actions and activating them. Three other Flemish professional partners and two partners in Senegal are supporting this journey.
