Local armed conflicts, such as the one in Eastern Ukraine (ongoing since 2014) or in Georgia (in 2008) always lead to such consequences when people are forced to leave their homes and to seek refuge in another area in their own country or a asylum abroad. Thus the interactions between locals and migrants is a very critical issue when many open and hidden problems emerge. Communities from all over the Europe should work on solutions to overcome challenges connected with today&#8217;s phenomenon of forced migration.<\/p>\n<p>The participants of the TC will learn about the method of the role-play simulation games: how to use, how to adapt for the certain learning purposes, and how to create their own simulation activities based on the local realities. We will start with more abstract simulations and then will continue to develop the games and simulations that will help to prevent or to solve existing conflict between locals and forced migrants.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"w-7248378027\" class=\"widget widget-image var-image-standard\">\n<div class=\"pagegrid\">\n<div class=\"six columns alpha omega\">\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<div class=\"framed-image-container no-drag\" data-clicktarget=\"#\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"framed-image\" src=\"https:\/\/s.smore.com\/u\/thumbs\/thumb-83d4db1c00a7bcadf65da8964cc17c4d.jpg\" alt=\"Big image\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"w-7327449433\" class=\"widget widget-text-paragraph var-paragraph-standard\">\n<div class=\"pagegrid\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"six columns alpha omega\">\n<div class=\"content\">\n<h3 class=\"theme-p-title theme-color3\" data-target=\"title\" data-clicktarget=\"#\"><strong>Aims and Objectives<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"theme-p theme-color-4\" data-target=\"content\">\n<ul>\n<li>to discover the <strong>challenges<\/strong> which appear in the communities in Europe connected with the <strong>f<\/strong><strong>orced migration and refugees<\/strong> and to look for <strong>solutions<\/strong> to these challenges;<\/li>\n<li>to learn about how <strong>youth can be active on the local level<\/strong> to help in the integration of the forced migrants;<\/li>\n<li>to learn about the <strong>role-play simulation games method <\/strong>(structure, specifics, usage, adaptation for the certain needs, creation of the games) and how it can be used to prevent or solve problematic issues connected with forced migration;<\/li>\n<li>to <strong>create new role play simulation activities <\/strong>based on the participants\u2019 realities which will be used in future for prevention or solving local conflicts connected with forced migration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"w-4554752979\" class=\"widget widget-image var-image-standard\">\n<div class=\"pagegrid\">\n<div class=\"six columns alpha omega\">\n<div class=\"wrapper\">\n<div class=\"framed-image-container no-drag\" data-clicktarget=\"#\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"framed-image\" src=\"https:\/\/s.smore.com\/u\/thumbs\/thumb-2d1c0c75214196c82bac1745a8d83d8b.jpg\" alt=\"Big image\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"w-7213458618\" class=\"widget widget-text-paragraph var-paragraph-standard\">\n<div class=\"pagegrid\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"six columns alpha omega\">\n<div class=\"content\">\n<h3 class=\"theme-p-title theme-color3\" data-target=\"title\" data-clicktarget=\"#\"><strong>Programme<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"theme-p theme-color-4\" data-target=\"content\">This is the draft of the <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/open?id=0B39giY98bs22VEN5LXozSF9xdGM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" data-id=\"l-8050225507\">programme<\/a> and there might be slight changes.
