In collaboration with Genç Hayat Foundation’s “Everyone Included” project and Erenler Youth Centre associated with Sakarya Provincial Directorate of Youth and Sports, short-term workshops were organised. Wood painting workshop, creative thinking training, non-violent communication, story completions, film screening and game workshops, as well as basic coding workshops all drew a lot of attention. These activities aim at bringing value to society by improving skills, thinking capacities, interpersonal interactions, and social cohesion between different societies of children of different age groups and nationalities participating in the workshops. Families emphasised that more such activities should be provided. The children expressed their happiness when exiting the Erenler Youth Centre after the final show.
