In March 2007 the European Youth Campaignall different - all equal will start in Austria! Young people will campaign for Diversity, Human rights and Participation.

  

The Campaign is coordinated by the Austrian National Youth Council, who works together with several partners across Austria. The main elements of the Campaign are:

  

Website and myspace-site

The websitehttp://www.alleandersallegleich.at/ will be launched in March. There, young poeple will find a lot of information on Diversity, on their right not to be discriminated against, on how to participate in the Youth Campaign and on how to fight against Discrimination.

The myspace-Site www.myspace.com/alleandersallegleich is another possibility to "link" oneself to the Campaign and show support for all different - all equal.

  

MMS- and E-Mail-Foto-Action „Wir sind Vielfalt"/"We are Diversity"

We want your picture! (Young) People can send a picture of their face via MMS or E-mail and form a huge mosaic of Diversity in Austria. This picture of Diversity will be created at the Campaign-Websitehttp://www.alleandersallegleich.at/. Everyone who participates shows, that she/he supports Diversity and condemns Discriminations of any kind!

  

„Tour der Vielfalt"/"Diversity-Tour"

From June to Septembera "Diversity-Lounge" will be present at the big Music-Festivals and several events for young people across Austria. The "Diversity-Lounge" is a place to meet people and get in touch with the campaign. A Diversity-Team will provide information about Diversity, Human Rights and Anti-Discrimination, will be there to discuss about Diversity.

  

Kreativbewerb/Creativity Contes

From June on young people are invited to show their understanding of Diversity. Pictures, texts, films, internet-art... everyone is welcome, to use his/her favourite way of expression. The outcomes will be presented at the Final Event of the Campaign.

  

Symposion for Youth Workers and Final Event of the Campaign

On November 17th (around the Day of Tolerance), Austrian Youth Workers are invited to learn more about intercultural youth work, to meet experts from NGOs and Researchers who deal with questions of Diversity and Anti-Discrimination and to discuss the challenges and chances of Diversity.

In the evening, a party will conclude the Campaign, some of the projects and outcomes of the Campaign will be presented and Diversity will be celebrated together. Of course we hope, that the ideas ofall different - all equal will live on in Austrian youth work!
