TOLERANCE VILLAGE
Youth Exchange
Activity Dates: 2-13 August 2020
Partner Countries: Spain, Hungary, Czech Republic, UK, Turkey
Aim: With “Tolerance Village”, we aimed not only to eliminate prejudices about Islamophobia and Islam but also, we aimed to eliminate prejudices about Judaism and Anti-Semitism. We also aimed to find out that there are similarities between different ethnicities and religions. While demonstrating the beauty of Islam to our participants through our activities, we aimed to find commonalities with other religions such as Judaism and Christianity, to reveal inter-religious similarities, and to contribute to interreligious dialogue. Because we have the idea that people of different religions will see commonalities between other religions and their religions, and this will facilitate the eradication of prejudices in their minds.
