Berdyansk, 5-19.09.2007 By Michail Eremeyev The aim of the workcamp “Strong-Equal” was to discuss with different youth groups problems of gender equality and gender policy in Ukraine and abroad, reasons for discrimination and future perspectives. “Peer to peer” principle was used in the activities.

Azov sea is also the warmest sea in the world. One of the main elements were meetings with young people and intercultural evenings. Details...
