IMPACT
As far as the benefits are concerned, the project will give a great number of youth a forum from which they can engage in more productive art and cultural activities, as well as discover and exploit their talents.
The impact of the project on the youth should begin to be seen in the first six months, specifically the fact that more youth from the regions will begin to be drawn to the event center, and appreciate cultures from outside their own locality.
The youth are naturally the most socially active in any society, it is the stage of life where ambitions and the means to achieve those ambitions are of a high priority for many individual youth.
These targeted beneficiaries will therefore be open to any opportunity that arises to help them engage in more productive activities as participants learn through the travelling experience of both cultures Europe/Africa in the form of this forum. At the end of a year, Global New Generation will seek to conduct an impact assessment through, if possible, a different project l0cation.
This is aimed towards perpetually integrating cultures from different regions of Ghana and Germany to influence cultural pluralism and tolerance.
