project goal
The focus of the program is on personal encounters and respectful dialogue between people from countries in the Global South who are involved in development cooperation projects and the most diverse target groups in Austria.
The program offers all participants the opportunity to gain diverse and multi-perspective experiences. In doing so, it creates a supportive environment for the development of skills and abilities that the target groups need to shape society for the future, in line with the SDGs.
