Richter is organizing from 6 till 13 March 2010 an training in Novi Sad, Serbia. In organizing this training Richter wishes to give opportunities to organizations from Europe and from the South East part of Europe to share their experiences and gain knowledge and new skills in the fields of youth work and youth arts, as well as establishing new contacts and developing common project ideas within the frame of the Youth in Action program.

The project will bring together a maximum of 16 professional youth workers to work together to explore concepts of citizenship and to learn skills which they can use with their own target groups to support them in becoming active and creative citizens within Europe. The impact of the training will therefore be not only on participants, who will have the opportunity to develop themselves, but also on the target groups of the organizations that they represent. 

Partners

The project will be managed by Richter, which is an NGO from the Netherlands, and is head responsible to deliver the training and travel arrangements. Richter organizes over 15 youth exchanges and trainings/seminars per year: we are also much involved in EVS programs as a sending and hosting organization.

Poetic art-trash in Richter

This exhibition is the result of the complementary work of Ellen Gieles and Helena Kersten, they are artist coming from Belgium.

The work of Ellen Gieles is inspired by our consumption-throwing society. She collects a lot of garbage or left behind by nature. She gives to the trash a new, often poetic, live.Helena Kersten makes drawings and stripping tales about her point of vieuw on the world, it’s often humoristic and strange. She knows how to take you to her own world; she transforms things and let you enjoy her own “moving” world.

We invite you gladly to attends this new captivating exhibition. This will be on the 25th of April at 16:00 in presence of the artists and the exhibition wil be open by an French noisy-trashy performer Steve Hurring-Laddi.
