The NGO UZOR, in partnership with NGO ALB Progress, has launched the project “Living Diversity: Youth in Intercultural Dialogue”, designed to address the challenges young people face today, such as growing ethnic and social distance, discrimination in public spaces, and the increasing prevalence of hate speech on social media.
In this context, the project aims to empower young people to develop intercultural competencies—knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed for living together in diversity—and to encourage them to become leaders of social change within their communities.
Among the most important project activities are the educational camp “Young Ambassadors of Interculturalism”, the podcast series “Culture of Interbeing”, and the forum “Living Diversity”.
The project will run for 10 months and is funded by the Ministry of Human and Minority Rights of Montenegro through the competition “Montenegro – A Country of Interculture”.
The project “Living Diversity: Youth in Intercultural Dialogue” seeks to show that young people are not merely passive observers of social processes, but that they can and should be drivers of change. By educating, connecting, and engaging them in creative and media formats, a new generation is being formed that will build Montenegro as a society open to diversity, based on mutual respect, solidarity, and common progress.
The project “Living Diversity: Youth in Intercultural Dialogue” is implemented by NGO UZOR in partnership with NGO ALB Progress and funded by the Ministry of Human and Minority Rights.
