Sports Community Building
SPAIN AND GREECE
Sports may be one of the best ways to bring people together and create understanding towards other people. This is why OCC is always trying to organise various sports events, ranging from cycling and football to volleyball and hiking. In Greece for instance, we regularly organise football tournaments (once even in collaboration with La Liga!), and in Spain we have a cycling group exisiting of MigraCode students and volunteers.
Untold Stories Barcelona
BARCELONA, SPAIN
“Untold Stories” is one initiative thought by a group of youth people with the goal of sharing the perspectives of people who left their countries for different reasons and found in Barcelona their new home. The was designed to act as a platform to share the voices of people who would like to tell their experiences, thus, showing the diversity and richness of cultures that meet in Barcelona. Through interviewing people from different origins and cultures we would like to promote solidarity and intercultural dialogue, but also to show the fact that we are all different, each of us in our unique way.
