AYUDH’s 14th European Youth Summit
Peace Generation
AYUDH’s 14th European Youth Summit
14 - 22 July 2018, M.A Center, Germany
Seminarzentrum Hof Herrenberg e.V.
“Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defences of peace must be constructed.”
Constitution of the UNESCO
For decades, peace in Europe has been taken for granted. More recently, national and international political as well as social developments have raised substantial concerns about the stability, social cohesion and peace of the region.
Many young Europeans are perturbed by these developments. They have a desire to understand the causes, explore solutions and take civic action together. Young people everywhere are searching for peace - within and without.
The weeklong youth summit ’Generation of Peace’ will provide an opportunity to explore ‘peace’ on three levels:
- Peace Within - encouraging self-refl ection and development of critical self-enquiry, mindfulness, empathy and compassion
- Peace with Others - social participation, advocacy and engagement in society
- Peace with the Environment - ecological sustainability as a requirement for stability and peace
The summit provides a unique platform for personal development, inter cultural dialogue and creative expression through a combination of talks and workshops that foster personal, environmental and global responsibilities, and practical training in leadership, change-making, mindfulness and sustainability
The teachings of Amma (Mata Amritanandamayi) form an essential part of the reflections at the summit and spiritual practices like yoga and meditation will be offered.
AYUDH would like to invite 300 youth, regardless of nationality, religion, gender or ability, aged 15 – 30,from across Europe. Youth who are marginalised - with disabilities, or economic or social obstacles - are especially encouraged to apply, support schemes are in place.
Participants strengthen their sense of active citizenship while experiencing the joy and empowerment of living and learning together with like-minded youth from diverse backgrounds.
The summit is supported by the ERASMUS+ Youth in Action Programm of the European Union.
AYUDH Europe is a network of concerned and proactive young citizens, and the youth branch of Embracing the World. We are dedicated to empowering young people to contribute to a peaceful and sustainable world while becoming compassionate leaders with a sense of tolerance, solidarity and global responsibility.
