Report by Darko Dimitrioski On the one hand, from the 12th to the 22nd of August, 4 youngsters and a youth leader from TACC participated at the youth exchange “Speak Up! Human Rights On Air” in Schötmar - Bad Salzuflen, near Bielefeld (Germany), together with other 25 young people from Germany, Belarus, Greece, the Russian Federation, and Ukraine. “Speak Up! HHRR On Air” aimed to develop its own podcast on human rights and racism in cooperation with local radio and combining methods such as creative writing, oral narrative and improvised theatre, with informative workshops. The exchange was a great success and the participants themselves summed it up as a very enriching experience, as during the exchange they had many moments of reflection and debate, and they recorded a podcast that was broadcasted live on Radio Herz, as well as a short podcast that tackles the topic "Racism in Pop Culture" in which they introduced several positive and negative examples out of mainstream media and literature talking about racial stereotypes and representation of race within them. Among other topics, they were talking and reflecting on the situation in Afghanistan, as just as they were in Schötmar there was the collapse of the Afghan government and the attempt by the people there to get out of the country as soon as possible, which led to group reflections.
