COUNCIL OF EUROPE: YOUNG ALBANIANS, SERBIANS, ISRAELIS, PALESTINIANS, TOGETHER AT THE PEACE CAMP

” “40 boys and girls, including Albanians, Serbians from Kosovo, Israelis and Palestinians, are meeting over these days at the Park of Europe, in Rust, Germany, for the Third Peace Camp, promoted by the 46 members of the Council of Europe (CoE). Opened on July 1st, the camp is the subject of a campaign that has been just recently launched by the CoE for diversity, participation and human rights: "all different, all the same". "The purpose of the campaign – states the CoE – is to gather boys and girls from crisis areas to make them live together so as to try out how only mutual knowledge can make misunderstandings, stereotypes and prejudices fall down. In this way we try to raise the boys and girls’ awareness that dialogue is more and more needed and therefore it must be more often sought when having to solve conflicts". The camp will end on July 8th.
