Twelve young people from Limerick City are off to Tortona in North Italy Friday Morning representing the Limerick Youth Service in an international programme on Youth Democracy.
Their blog www.doit4youlimerick.blogspot.com outlines all the work they have undertaken over the past few months (please have a look). They are one of 4 groups that are involved – along with a group from Ballyfermot and 2 groups from Italy (Tortona, North and Tropea, South). They have a packed week ahead of workshops and activities on themes such as ‘alternative participation’, ‘how to participate in Democracy’ and ‘Democracy / participation through IT and mobile technology’. Other activities will include an intercultural night where they will show off Limerick and Ireland, sports activities and even a Clowning workshop where they will perform their clown skills at a local carnival!
