What is Social Active Youth?

Hey!:-)
Here, in Nurri, we all have a chance to get to know each other's cultures – not only working together, but also during special events. One of them was an inter-cultural evenings, when every group had to prepare the presentation about their country, sharing not only the important facts but also some funny stories and traditional food. We got to know the story of Tesla, tried delicious Lithuanian bread, heard about the beauty of Canary Islands, tasted Bulgarian spicy peppers and got to meet a Polish superhero, superconsonantman!



During the activities, focusing on the social media, we have a chance to exchange our experience and opinions, based both on our cultural background and personal story. Via different methods of work we try to learn how to use social media better and more efficiently, at the same time seeking  the answers to the most essential questions connected to the social media: what is their role in the modern world? What is the danger? How do they change our reality?


One of our activities requires making up a video on a topic of Youth in Action. We were assigned different methods to carry out our task. Discussing, we set up the basic plan and then, sometimes with real sacrifices, we turned into real filmmakers. We not only had fun, but got familiarized with the basic applications, devices and methods of video-making. And even though some people were so engaged in the work that they accidentally fell into the swimming pool, it was still worth it...
