Why the 3-day Dialogue for Inclusion Conference Worldwide a lot of young people are leaving their countries for important reasons. Some of them have to flee to stay alive, for safety.

Some of them leave because of lack of basic needs, employment and future perspective. By this situation better integration of young migrants, refugees, asylum seekers (YMRAs) and prevention of migration have become priority topics in local, national and international communities and policy makers' agendas *.

Youngsters from different continents and countries have a new common vision on social inclusion and sustainable development.

They work together on practical solutions and a worldwide basic concept for better integration and prevention of migration of their peers worldwide.

For both reasons it’s important that youngsters, policymakers and local governments conduct the dialogue on social inclusion and prevention of migration regularly. As well locally as internationally. To share vision, practical solutions for development of future oreinted policy making and work together on these priority topics. Youngsters and policymakers can achieve more together.

To start this regular dialogue locally and globally, we organize the International Dialogue for Inclusion 2018 on September 13 in Eindhoven, Netherlands. Followed up in July 18, 2019. In 2018-2019 the Dialogue for Inclusion will continue locally in the 7 European and Partner countries, who organize this first Dialogue for Inclusion 2018 in collaboration with Erasmus plus.

By the Dialogue for Inclusion young locals, YMRAs, European and local policymakers can face all challenges on Migration together and create concrete, long term solutions! *Read more about the EU Commission and their work towards the European Agenda on Migration: European Commission website.

How the 3-day Dialogue for Inclusion Conference works By support of a Erasmus plus KA3 grant we are able to organize the first 3-day Dialogue for Inclusion Conference with 7 NGO’s from Albania, Austria, Bosnia-Herzegovina, France, Romania, Sweden and the Netherlands.

For this 3-day conference we invite 100 youngsters, aged 13 to 30 years to come together in Eindhoven to participate in the Dialogue for Inclusion 2018. Among them 70 youngsters and young migrants from our 7 NGO networks and 30 more youngsters and YMRAs from the Netherlands. They will work 3 days together to contribute to a new, shared vision on social inclusion, prevention of migration and recommendations for future oriented EU policymaking on these topics. Besides this they will share the wonderful projects and solutions they already undertake in their own cities during the ‘Solution for Inclusion Market’ on Day 2.

The 100 youngsters will meet on September 12 to prepare the Dialogue and Solution Market they undertake on September 13. On September 13, the ‘Dialogue for Inclusion’ will take place with European and local policymakers who are invited to participate in the Dialogue for Inclusion Day. On September 14 the youngsters will work together on recommendations and the activity plan 2018-2019 for follow-up of the Dialogue Conference 2018. A follow up that will contribute to final recommendations that will me made during the 3-day Dialogue for Inclusion Conference 2019. This will be hold in July 2019.

By organizing the 3-day conference this way, youngsters, YMRAs and policymakers can create shared vision, ideas, collaboration and mutual support for betterment of integration and prevention of migration. By this and the local and international Dialogue for Inclusion Conferences that will be organized in 2018-2030 by the 7 project countries, we can make more impact in Europe and beyond, altogether.

How we came to the importance of the Dialogue for Inclusion Since 2015 we organize Youth Exchanges to bring youngsters from different countries, backgrounds and cultures together.

Youngsters, who are active in their communites and have new vision when it comes to future oriented development. By bringing them together for 10 days in 2016, 2017 we discovered: we have common visions when we think about Daily Action towards a better world and future for everyone, including our Earth! Since then we built a Global Concept & Program so that we can work together worldwide with the same tools, training, quality eduction and support. (to read about the Global Concept & Program: scroll our OWC Homepage) Since 2016 we have the 17 Global Goals for Sustianable Development (SDGs) which can connect us world wide in Action towards a better world and future! These 17 Goals are about Social Justice/Inclusion, an Inclusive, Sustainable Economy and good care for our Earth (by giving back what we take from the Earth). These Goals were launched in 2016 with the subtitle No One Left Behind. Of course! Because when you look at the 17 Goals, what we have to do to create a better society and future, we can’t succeed achieving them if half of the world is held back!

Achievement of these 17 Goals means we need a lot of innovation on all 17 topics. Innovation that becomes powerful and sustainable if we make Work (new employment) of them all. If you look at it this way you see: in these 17 Global Goals a lot of new Youth employment is hidden. It’s up to us to make Work of it! By doing this a lot of youngsters will find employment and future in their countries!

That’s why the OWC Global Concept & Program is the base for 3 main activities: 1. Quality Education about the sustainalbe issues of the Global Goals; 2. Social Entrepreneurship to work out ideas for change towards the Goals into Start-ups/Jobs; 3. The Dialogue of Youth & Policymakers to collaborate on future oriented development and policy to support employment for sustainable change.

The 17 SDGs a perfect instrument for the European Agenda on Migration This is what we see and want to bring to the table among all other topics that will be in the 15 tables during the Dialogue Day: ●

The 17 Global Goals are a perfect base to foster social inclusion of young migrants and prevention of migration.

●

Offering all young migrants, refugees and asylum seekers as soon as they arrive in their new countries a base program for empowerment and development of Employability and Employment for sustainlabe change is the best way to contirbute to their Better Integration.

●

Offering youngsters from low income communities and countries with a high level of unemployment the same base program for empowerment and development of Employability and Employment for sustainlabe change, is the best way to best way to contirbute to Prevention of Migration.

●

Young locals and young migrants can organize and give this base program for empowerment and development of Employability and Employment for sustainlabe change together. By doing this, they create an important contribution in their local communities. An important contribution in 2 ways: ○ They contribute directly to Social Inclusion and Future Perspective of their peers locally. ○ By the new Startups and employment for sustainalbe change that come out of the basse program they contirbute to social and sustainable change. And achievement of the Global Goals in 2030!

In 2017 we organized the 1st FUTURE ROOTS Youth Exchange focussed on (y)our contribution to better integration of young migrants and prevention of migration of youngsters

The Youth Exchange 2017 showed: it make sense to create a follow up, the Global Future Roots (train the trainer) program, in 4 steps.

Future Roots 1 (already done in 2017)

Future Roots 2 (pilot in 2019)

Example/basic format of a 10-day program for young locals and young migrants to start working together on local projects, contributing to a better life, future perspective and integration of young migrants รกnd prevention of migration.

To enable, empower and train participant-teams* who joined the Future Roots 1 program to continue/ strengthen the local projects they started in 2017, to support each other online and to organize and give the Future Roots 1 program to young people and young migrants in their city/village themselves.

Future Roots 3 (pilot in 2019)

Future Roots 4 (pilot in 2020)

To enable participant-teams* who joined Future Roots 1 + 2 to become local coordinators of the Future Roots projects, undertaken by youngsters in their city, through development of leadership skills, coach/support skills and use of social media for community management.

To enable participant-teams* who joined Future Roots 1+2 + 3 to start their local NGO or CBO (Community Based Org.) as base for local projects on inclusion/prevention of migration, done by young locals, young migrants; to develop self-sufficient Business plans for their NGO/CBO and to work together in the Global OWC / Future Roots Network.

*Youth Workers / Teachers from youth centers and schools in the cities/villages of the participant-teams are invited to join the program.
