Main aim of the project was to build capacities of involved organisations and communities to promote values of the peace along with other European values within their target groups. Reason and main motivation for organisations to implement this project was rise of discrimination, hate speech, violence against minorities and nationalisms in Europe which they were not able to address without educating its youth workers and providing them with mentioned opportunities. In same time half of organisations are working in counties with EU membership perspective in which Euro-scepticism and lover support to EU integration during slow and not very visible reforms and progress on this path in more than 20 years.
