Day 4

Participants had the activies as follows:

1. Energizer

2. Derdians

3. Forum theater

4. Human Rights workshop

5. Movie night

1. Energizer: The day started with cool energizer named honey bunny game which was very joyful and fun. Every participant had to imagine a bunny in one's hands and kiss the bunny on a particular part. The next participant should receive the bunny and kiss it in a different place and so on. The important rule of the game is not to kiss the bunny on the same place and everyone should keep in mind where they kissed it. In the end, the participants should kiss the person next to them on the same place they kissed the bunny.

Conclusion: The game was really funny and everyone enjoyed it.

2. Derdians: The facilitator divided the participants in two groups. One group contained engineers, while the other one contained the derdian tribe. The engineers were asked to leave the room and were given instructions on building a bridge from cardboard between two chairs. They were also allowed to use a pair of scissors and some paper duct tape. The engineers were given 10 minutes to build the bridge. Only two of them were selected to reenter the room in which the other group was and were instructed to explain them how to build the bridge that they just built. Derdians stayed in the room and were explained some certain rules that would surprize engineers. The rules were vague and challenging for engineers. They had to guess the traditions of that particular tribe so that to be able to build the bridge.

Conclusion: Every community has its own differences and specifics. Before visiting an unkown society its better to make a small research about their traditions and taboos.

3. Forum Theater: Georgian team presented to participants a forum theater. The main idea of the theater was to focus on the problems and to solve it with the audience. The spesific thing about the forum theater is that the audience itself took part in the play.

Conclusion: The idea was to put yourself into someone else's shoes and show some empathy to others. It was good life lesson to everybody.

4. Human Rights workshop: The Romanian team prepared the workshop which was based around the ability of each participant to enact a character. The character range was from dicriminated minorities to wealthy business man. They all had to line-up and some questions were asked to them. For each affermative answer, the participants had to make a step forward and for each negative answer they had to stay still. The idea was to identify themselves with the character and provide some information from their countries (related to prostitution, emigrants, gypsies, refugees etc.). At the end, a short video was presented about the atrocities that happend in the recent history in which the human rights were not respected (great famine from Ukraine in the '30s).

Conclusion: Each participant had a chance to imagine themselves as minority in the their own countries. They showed some empathy to the charachter they represented.

5. Movie night: The participants watched the movie named Intouchables.
