Hallo and welcome to Lund

The Planning Conference 14th-16th of February is getting closer and closer. We want all participants to feel warmly welcome to Lund. Our ultimate goal is to create three days for you, filled with new people, experiences and different perspectives on inclusion and democracy processes.

Conference Program hints so far
The program will begin with a real energy kick. We have arranged for a cultural workshop together with an agency that offers post high school education and work for people with intellectual disabilities here in Lund (www.kulturcentrumskane.com);

Second: a process leader will lead the dialogues and discussions during day two.

Third: There will be presentations and demonstration of the norm critical program BREAK by a young activist from “RFSL youth” and about the project video filming;

Fourth: A party at one of our youth clubs with food and music performances will end the second day. This party is open for everyone, so you will be able to meet also youngsters that are not engaged in the project.

Fifth: We are also inviting people from different civil rights movements and political youth organizations to listen and give opinions on the project discussions. Their participation will complement the diverse picture of inclusion and exclusion.

This is our plans so far. Our wish is that you will return home with new ideas, strengths, friends and ways to communicate with them, that will make the second activity period even more stronger than the one we have just completed.

Please prepare a presentation
Now to your part of the conference. We want you to prepare a 15 minutes presentation based on your local project report. It could be in a form that you prefer, something creative, fun and serious; a story out of a picture collage or painting, a power point presentation, a musical rap, a drama play etc. We want you to feel that all your experiences, difficulties as well as success, are equally important to bring to the table.

Feel free to contact us with any kind of questions on mail: bengt.o.persson@lund.se or +46734485348

Welcome to Lund!
