Ühiskonna Heaks (NYH) is promoting a call
for participants for a Youth Exchange called “Living Treasures” which
will take place in 02nd
until 09th June 2013 in Adana, Turkey.
The main goal of project : Soon or later we will
get older, at that time, when we look at the back, long way would be
already passed with lots of experience and mark of life’s’ .Elderly people are
always vulnerable, helpless and each of them is a ‘Living Treasures’. They are
a kind of human book; therefore the aim of this project is to bring people
together in one-to-one conversation, to encourage understanding, sharing life
experiences, to obtain first-hand information about history, love, and sadness
from old-aged people.
Our objective is to organise the project
in ‘home for aged, or nursing home’ to give a message to elderly people: we are
here to share your priceless experience, we are here to convey our hand and
remind them that you are not forgotten’. In the first 3 days we will make
workshops, analyse the method to the way of approaching to book (elderly
people) and the role of readers (we are readers). And then rest of the way we
plan to implement the project in nursing house by obtaining their experience.
In this way, we also aim to keep alive of ex-games that almost forgotten by new
generation. We assure that, this project will open up new doors in your future
life regarding the importance of your time that would never come back. Lest go
to be reader of a ‘living book’.
