Journey Towards Inclusivity: Highlights from the Online Discrimination Conference

Youth Power recently participated in an online conference addressing discrimination. The event was not only a significant step toward fostering awareness but also marked the introduction of the Dare 4.0 project

Dr. Ziad Fahed, a charismatic and knowledgeable speaker, led an engaging and interactive session on the cultural aspects of discrimination. He began by highlighting the fascinating diversity of cultures worldwide and how cultural norms can greatly differ from one country to another.

The session took an interactive turn as participants were divided into groups. Here, they openly discussed both positive and negative cultural experiences encountered during their travels abroad. These discussions provided valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities of intercultural interactions.

In a thought-provoking segment, participants viewed a captivating video that underscored the significance of inclusion in combating discrimination. The video served as a powerful reminder of the importance of embracing diversity and ensuring everyone has a seat at the table.

Towards the conclusion of the session, Dr. Fahed presented seven key points for effective intercultural communication. These essential takeaways equipped participants with valuable tools to foster understanding and bridge cultural gaps in their personal and professional lives.

Youth Power’s involvement in this online discrimination conference underscores its dedication to building a more inclusive and accepting society. The event not only shed light on the challenges of discrimination but also provided practical strategies for promoting cultural understanding and harmony.

The DARE 4.0 project aims to promote intercultural dialogue, embrace diversity, and foster innovation. It seeks to bridge the digital divide, promote inclusion, and encourage active participation. Through events like this meeting, we are one step closer to achieving these goals and creating a more inclusive and connected society.
