The document calls for action to increase social inclusion and address social exclusion. It proposes that 1) social norms often do not fit all people, 2) many youth feel alienated and silent, and 3) the current system of values sometimes wrongly labels and excludes people. The target group is youth who can educate others. Suggested actions include self-education to discuss social inclusion, educating others, and creating school courses on topics like social inclusion, urbanism, alienation, and cultural studies. The courses should be interactive and require students to identify real examples, and spread ideas online. The goals are to interest more youth in social problems and train them to address issues of exclusion.

1. CALL FOR ACTION:
Social exclusion
Or social inclusion?
Presented by Stefan Alievikj

2. 1. We made society with norms that don’t fit
each human being on this planet
• Social exclusion is a multidimensional process
of progressive social rupture, detaching
groups and individuals from social relations
and institutions and preventing them from full
participation in the normal, normatively
prescribed ...

3. 2. Alienation
Did you turn your intentions into actions or
did you joined the club Forever silent?
Silence is what is killing us.
We managed to isolate ourselves… The bigger
percentage of young people are inactive and
silent.
Life is taken easily as one big beauty contest.

4. 3. Wrong-labeled system of values
Tough we may find ourselves knowing all about certain issues
in the society, yet we are taught at our homes about our
safety. They teach us when we are little kids that we should
not talk to strangers for example; then a stranger in need
comes to ask for a little help and we exclude that person. That
person is nobody in your world. You turn the other
cheek, because that’s the easiest way out.
Target group: We are the target group
(me, you, friends you know, your colleagues, every
student and kid you can connect to)

5. What can be done? (ideas for action)
• Self-education (connecting • Educating the others (since
among each other and we can educate
exchanging ideas and ourselves, we can connect
experiences; talking about to other people and expand
social inclusion; the ideas and influence the
books, movies connected to environment)
that theme we can • Creating special courses in
implement the idea in our primary schools/ high
daily life and daily topics) schools/ universities/ NGOs

6. DON’T STAY SILENT
• We should not stay silent!
• We should always talk
and criticize an act of
social exclusion we are
witnessing
• Developing social
network criticism (by
implementing the topics
for social
inclusion/exclusion on our
social network medias)

7. Improvements in education can increase social
inclusion
The purpose of the special courses in the schools
- forming new aspects and points of view among
the active youth
- the courses/lectures/meetings (or whatever we
can come up with) should born ideas how to
help underprivileged youth
- the main improvement is to change the way of
thinking

8. Topics of the
courses/lectures/classes in the
schools:
1. Social inclusion/exclusion
2. Impacts of the urbanism
3. Alienation
4. Cultural studies

9. Interactive & Intermediary
• Interactive (interaction between social
workers, professors and students = not a
classic form of lecturing)
• Intermediary (the students task can be ones
where they will locate forms of social
exclusion in
literature, movies, videos, newspaper etc)
• Extra tasks (spreading the ideas on
Facebook, Twiter and other social networks)

10. What we can gain is…
1.Higher percentage of youth interested in
problems of the modern age;
2. More compatible youth to answer questions
or propose resolutions to many issues;
3. Gaining knowledge about general
culture, literature etc = gain of humanity!
