EQUALITY AND SOLIDARITY Section 2 offinaldocument
Why do we think this topic is important? • In society exist several pending problems: racism, ethnic discrimination and lack of respect to other citizens and the environment. • It is necessary for young people to be aware of these problems and try to prevent them from becoming worse. • We need to create a better society and a brighter future for us all. • We embrace peace and harmony through promotion of equality and solidarity.
We as young people… • Promotion of integration by organizing meetings, gatherings and sport events; • International gatherings to promote the understanding of different cultures; • Invite people of different cultures to join groups of friends
Organizing fund raising activities to help refugees and immigrants both socially and financially. • Accept people in society, and not judge them because of their origins, beliefs and cultures. • Report cases of abuse and bullying on other youths in society • If everyone pulls his/her own weight in society, we can eventually improve our society.
Recommendations • Promotion of information about main laws and principles to guarantee equality and solidarity • Expanding the field of voluntary work and promoting information about the existing options (rights and responsibilities) • Setting up a European TV channel specifically for youths to pass on information
Facilitate access to renewable sources of energy by giving special subsidies. • Equality in healthcare: improvement of conditions in hospitals to reach European standards • The right of access to preventive healthcare and benefits of treatment regardless of ethnicity, beliefs and origin • Set up student and youth exchange meetings on a large scale: people can accept different cultures through real life experiences
