ARTE DIEM is a project about promoting culture of peace and solidarity
through art. The idea is to gather young people from different
backgrounds and countries to reflect about art and how it can serve as a
tool to build a peaceful society. The international youth exchange
project has been organized annually since 1999 in different countries
(in Europe and outside of Europe). For the first time ARTE DIEM will be
organized in ASIA by SJ VIETNAM and YAP with the collaboration of NVDA !!
We will receive 30 young people, 20 young people from Europe and 10
young people from Asia. The International volunteers, Vietnamese
volunteers and professional artists will use art as a tool to promoting
a culture of peace and dialogue.Through discussion, creativity, learning
and workshop, barriers cultural and even languages incomprehension, can
be broken down and new ideas can born in order to promote peace through
art and voluntarism. Volunteers will also share life experiences of
local population who are disabled, disadvantaged or live in poverty.
SJ Vietnam is looking for young, enthusiastic, open-minded and creative
volunteers, who wants to help us to prepare this wonderful project.
