New Par­a­digm of Edu­ca­tion: Euro­pean Dia­logue

What is the new par­a­digm in edu­ca­tion?

New Par­a­digm of Edu­ca­tion is the brain­child of the Inter­na­tional Move­ment Youth Time. The goal of the project is to unite young peo­ple from dif­fer­ent coun­tries and empower them. We believe that they have to play the key role in chang­ing our soci­eties with diverse inter­cul­tural edu­ca­tion activ­i­ties and cam­paigns.

We are con­vinced that one of the most impor­tant require­ments to reach bet­ter edu­ca­tion are active youth par­tic­i­pa­tion and embed­ding youth vision in the sphere of education.This ini­tia­tive will lead to a bet­ter under­stand­ing between dif­fer­ent soci­eties and inclu­sion of young peo­ple as a full-​fledged stake­holder for chang­ing edu­ca­tion.

Inter­na­tional Youth Forum “New Par­a­digm of Edu­ca­tion: Euro­pean Dia­logue” in Paris 26 – 27 Novem­ber 2013 aims to build and pro­mote the plat­form to sup­port youth ini­tia­tives in edu­ca­tion. The Paris Dec­la­ra­tion on Edu­ca­tion that will be signed there will expose youth vision on edu­ca­tion and will mark the ways to adapt edu­ca­tion to the mod­ern world chal­lenges and will ensure high-​quality learn­ing expe­ri­ence avail­able for all rep­re­sen­ta­tives of the new gen­er­a­tion around the globe.

QUES­TIONS AND ANSWERS

– Do you have a “spe­cial offer” for par­tic­i­pants from France?

Yes. Dead­line for the par­tic­i­pants from France which do not need visas and flight tick­ets is extended till Novem­ber, 15th. For res­i­dents of Paris we can offer a reduced con­fer­ence fee rate (50 euros) which includes the participant´s kit, meals and guar­an­tees the pos­si­bil­ity to attend our cul­tural activ­i­ties from Novem­ber 25 to Novem­ber 28.

For non-​residents of Paris the fee will remain 100 euros. Apart from meals, activ­i­ties and participant´s kit this amount is des­tined to cover (par­tially) accom­mo­da­tion from Novem­ber 25 to Novem­ber 28. Reim­burse­ment pro­ce­dure for train tick­ets cost is reg­u­lated by com­mon rules (50% or less from the total cost).

– Is there will be trans­la­tion pro­vided dur­ing the Forum?

Unfor­tu­nately no. We are expect­ing rep­re­sen­ta­tives from more than 10 coun­tries to attend this Inter­na­tional Forum. That’s why the work­ing lan­guage of the event will be Eng­lish. Syn­chro­nous trans­la­tion from other lan­guages will cause dif­fi­cul­ties for the inter­ac­tive for­mats of the work­ing sessions.

– Is it pos­si­ble to apply two can­di­dates with the same project or exper­tise?

Yes. Two appli­cants are the max­i­mum to present the same project or exper­tise.

– Europe or EU coun­tries?

Europe. Par­tic­i­pants from Bosnia and Herze­gov­ina can apply as well.
