Of Anna Novgorodova The attitude of Ukrainian people towards foreigners really impressed our volunteers, because people are very curious about strangers and are friendly too. So local people treat foreigners as special people, try to make them feel comfortable. Sometimes they are even too pushy. What was great about Dobre razom workcamp itself is working with children. This really made a huge impact on me and on the volunteers. It’s an important experience and I suppose everyone should try it at least once in a lifetime, to see how it feels =) Plus, just seeing a country different from your own in so many ways was a great experience.

On the 27th of October in Kharkiv the campleaders of SVIT met to evaluate this projects which took place in August-September 2007 It started off with the campleaders telling about their camps: what was working, how was the work, group life, communication and what needed to be improved. We also evaluated preparation of camps and campleaders. Afterwards we discussed together if we want to continue the same projects next year and what improvements and changes that needs to be done. We also started to think about new possible topics for workcamps for the summer of 2008 and agreed to make a public call for new partners interested to host workcamps. Some creative work was required before the lunch break – to make a written presentation of the projects. Details...

By Jasmin Soehner A nice café in the Armenian street of Lviv – all of our volunteers are sitting around a table, sipping at their excellent coffees or hot chocolates, listening attentively to a young man from Lviv, whom we want to tell us something about new (Western) Ukrainian history. Weather is fine, atmosphere relaxed, translator and camp leader Galya ready for translating our expert’s Ukrainian words into English. Nice guy, by look the kind of alternative people you expect to be interested in history and its critical analysis. Russian against Polish-Latvian Empire, Hetman, Bohdan Chelmnizkij, Cossacks fly past our eyes. Details...

@ Kiev/Ukraine, 27.-30.08.2007 by Sven Rasch Within the framework of the long-term project „Youth Transcending New Frontiers“ (YTNF, see: www.ytnf.org/) this training session aimed at providing volunteers of the „Dobre Razom“-project with basic knowledge on the issues of racism and xenophobia and to prepare them for the elaboration of educational activities in the respective fields with youth/students to be delivered in the first two weeks of September 2007 in the western (Lviv) and Eastern (Kharkiv) part of Ukraine. The session was supposed to be a kick-off for a group of 15 volunteers from all over Europe and the U.S.A. that would split shortly after the session to implement their activities in the one or the other city.

Dobre Razom project is over but our PMT is still in the mood for creative actions. Tonight (probably with the help of flying mushrooms) we drew cool chalk symbols on Kharkiv main square telling that every creature in this world is different and yet equal. And even though some things end other things begin. We'll miss you Galya! * topfit & flying mushrooms were the key expressions in our Dobre Razom teams. Details...

Dobre razom is keeping on discovering features of local culture. Today is the second day of work in a school, and it is so interesting to see kidz expressing their attitude to foreign people and countries. Communicating with them, it is very obious to see how stereotypes are formed and how do they transform into xenophobia later. Details...

It's been a week since the Dobre Razom project has started in Kyiv. During that time we had a great training on antiracism giving us some tips and cool methods of teaching at our schools. Sadly we had to separate after that and continue our journeys in two different cities to discover special things about this world and ourselves. So that's what we're doing now. Today is September the 1st, Knoledge Day in Ukraine and the Kharkiv team had a chance to participate in the celebration and meet the kids we're going to work with. And we even got flowers just for being there:) On Monday the school starts. Details...
