What do we want to achieve?
General
Dwagulu-Dekkente vzw is an organization for
development education with the
goal to enforce the dynamics of international and intercultural solidarity among young people.
Dwagulu-Dekkente vzw works with young people from
different angles:
Knowledge
To bring knowledge about global relations in the world
we live in today:
Every year young people gain more insights in North –
South relations and the importance of sustainable development. Through
education in preparatory weekends they acquire more knowledge about North –
South proportions.
Experience/insight
Intercultural learning and imaging:
Young people assimilate intercultural knowledge and
skills, so that they can try to deal with cultural difference on a conscious
and nuanced way. In the route we strive for more nuanced and substantiated
imaging regarding North – South, intercuturality, sustainable development…
Action
After the awareness process, young people make steps to
proceed to action. They bring their own environment in contact with their
knowledge and skills about interculturality and sustainable development. In
this way they contribute in the widening of the support level for international
solidarity and cooperation (multipliers effect and engagement).
Volunteers go through an
active participation process within the organization. By being a part of an
organization culture they too go through a learning process.
