Read Meet the Street in Brief! [0]

Meet the Street - I was the first phase of the Meet the Street project.

It ran from October 2008 till the end of February 2009.

During this phase, ERYICA, in cooperation with the Service National de la Jeunesse [1] subjects for interviews [1] 

These trainings provided the youngsters with all the tools they would need in order to conduct peer to peer interviews.

Each project partner centre [1] was asked to find 6 youngsters, who would conduct interviews. From these 6 youngsters, 2 participated in the event in Luxembourg.

They had to train 4 other youngsters from their centre, who didn't participate in the training, and "transmit" the skills they had acquired during it.

Each centre committed itself to upload 35 interviews during the "Meet the Street - I" (by mid-March 2009).

The other 35 interviews were uploaded during the second phase of the project (by the end of June 2009).

The videos can be viewed here [2]

The training provided took place in the Youth hostel of Luxembourg on 4 - 7 December 2008, where 39 youngsters from 12 different countries came to be trained (2 youngsters per partner association).

The interviews taken dealt with such subjects as drugs, employment, health, education, exchange projects, and the right to vote.

Meet the Street - II was the second phase of the project running from March 2009 till  September 2009.

During this phase, a follow-up meeting and training of youngsters was organised in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, on 16 - 19 of April 2009. Forty youngsters participated in the event.
