1) The document discusses Yamur Imamova's experience participating in a month-long training program in Modica, Italy focused on human rights and helping refugees.
2) During the training, Yamur and others learned skills that they used to conduct activities with refugees and students about topics like discrimination and tolerance. They also visited organizations assisting migrants.
3) Yamur created her own workshop about happiness where participants discussed what happiness is and where it comes from. She felt proud of engaging the participants in important discussion, though knew it could be improved.
2. It's been almost a week since I came back from Modica. The
only thing that comes to my mind when I remember the time
spent there is love. And unification.
3. The Begginig
My inspiration was the place, as it was my
dream to visit a province in the south of Italy,
and even more so for a whole month. Then the
topic. I am a student of Psychology and I have
always cared about human rights. As a person,
I can say that I am very compassionate and
love to help. Even when we conducted the
interview, I fell in love with the attitude of our
trainers. I was the happiest person when I was
told that I had been selected.
4. Training
We learned everything we needed and used it
throughout the project. We have accumulated
so much knowledge in such a short time that it
will certainly be useful to us and we will use it in
the future.
Mediterranean Hope Scicli
We had the opportunity to talk to refugees
mainly from Africa - Syria and Sudan. They
were all very open, they took us around the city
and showed us everything as we walked
together. The next day we managed to create
various interesting activities for them.
Liceo Scientifico Galileo
Galilei
We also visited a local school, where together
with teenagers at different ages we carried out
activities related to discrimination, prejudice,
tolerance and harassment.
Caritas Ragusa
The activities were not so successful, as most
of the participants were missing or late,
although we had prepared. Still, we did
everything we could. In addition, we were able
to talk to a lady who received accommodation
from them. She told us a little more about her
life
5. Marina di Acate
We learned poignant stories about migrants
who live and work there in very difficult
conditions. We also met children from different
countries who grew up there and it was a
pleasure to talk to them, they welcomed us with
open arms and hearts. We danced together,
played games and had a lot of fun! We were
able to talk to volunteers who work there and
learn more about their work.

7. Erasmus+ Youth
Exchange
We also met with young people participating in
an Erasmus + youth exchange and together
with them we re-created various activities
related to the project topics. It was a great
experience, because we managed to realize
everything we wanted.
Of course, for this purpose we cannot fail to
mention again the organization and the people
behind it. The training, knowledge, skills and
help we received from them are invaluable.

8. Our own project
Finally, we managed to make our own
projects with our concept. I created a
workshop about Happiness, where
we discussed what it is, where it
comes from and what our concept of
it is.
Overall, I am pleased with the end
result, as the topic managed to
provoke a great discussion among
the participants and my initial goal
was achieved. In the end, I really felt
proud of myself, even though I knew
it could always be better.
What is happiness?
9. THANK YOU!
I am grateful that I had the opportunity to make
this unforgettable adventure possible.
