Description

Description (EN):

The main problem that will be solved is the low level of interpersonal relations on the Polish-Belarusian border between neighbors. Despite the short distance that separates Mielnik Commune Town of Wysokie (about 20 km), the level of contacts between these towns is low and insufficient. It was caused by the historical fact when this area after the ages of developing together was divided by the border after world war II. The lack of regular contacts was a big drama for inhabitants and caused that people living in this area moved away from each other. It also caused mutual distrust in accordance with the principle that what is unknown can be dangerous. The concept of this project is to reverse these trends. Its assumption is to establish mutual relations on the basis of cultural activities. This will allow on the one hand to get to know, refresh the culture and traditions of its neighbors, and on this level, build friendships and positive mutual relations. At the same time, the implementation of the project will evaluate institutional cooperation at the level of project partners and will contribute to the growth of cultural links. An additional effect will also be the education of children and youth and the promotion of local cultural heritage and native traditions. The main activities in the project will be joint cultural projects addressed to the residents of partner municipalities such as: international meetings of children and youth, arts and crafts workshops, Christmas and New Year meetings, as well as folklore festival. All events will be implemented jointly. They will take place both in Poland and in Belarus. In addition, the project provides for study visits to get to know the partners better. All this will allow achieving the main objective of the project, which is to increase cross-border cultural cooperation. Without the cooperation and the participation of representatives of both sides in each activity, there won't be possible to achieve its objective.
