This is another Polish-Ukrainian youth project, implemented in 2022 by the AVE Foundation in collaboration with the Eco-Mercy Foundation.
Description:
No! We are not starting an advertising agency! Although openness and the power of suggestion will appear in our project. PR for us means two words: FUTURE and DEVELOPMENT. We are thinking more seriously about our future, our profession, and... we dream of a better world. A world that is solidarity-based, inclusive, and, above all, free of wars. As we write these words, half of us are going through the difficult times of war. But we trust that we will meet, and what we planned together a few weeks ago today takes on even greater significance. We will spend 10 days (we, meaning volunteers from the AVE Foundation and Eco-Mercy, who have already carried out several successful initiatives) with courses and presentations on WOPR (Water Volunteer Rescue Service) rescue training, and... theater. Why? These are not escapes from – we trust – a post-war reality, but two spaces that will allow us to acquire new skills and competencies, including those related to self-presentation and breaking barriers. They will increase our chances in the job market in the future, but will also be useful in social activities within our organizations. But that's not all. There will also be flashing (because we plan to learn the basics of sign language!) kayaks and bicycles, because those are our passions. And at the finale, we will create a theater performance based on the works of Mickiewicz and Shevchenko, and... we will take our deaf peers on a kayaking trip!
