About the Project
This project will be about Emotional Intelligence for Intercultural awareness. As Europe becomes culturally diverse, higher emotional intelligence in society can play an important role in communication between different cultures and respect towards each other. Empathy, respect, social cooperation, participation and international awareness is one of the most effective forms of building emotionally intelligent societies.
Moreover, after the pandemic, youth organisations had to overcome the global crisis by sharing mindful practices, developing strong social and emotional skills, and strengthening Intercultural cooperation. It is essential that young people are empowered to develop a respect for their cultural identity and the values of others.
