Mission and Objectives

Objectifs et mission:
Yakaare est une ong qui a un statut juridique à caractere apolitique,associative et non lucrative.
Elle est constituée en majorité de femmes et elle intervient particulièrement dans l’appui à l’insertion des jeunes handicapés dans la société civile. Depuis sa date de création en 2003 l’ong n’a de cesse d’apporter son concours aux familles pauvres victimes des évènements tragiques de 1989 qui avaient fait à l’époque plusieurs morts et déportés en dehors de la Mauritanie.
Plusieures actions avec l’aide d’une ong française ont été menées à travers toute la commune de sebkha pour offrir des degrés considérables de capacité dans la formation des jeunes sans appui.
Aujourd’hui grâce au nouveau partenariat international et aux nouveaux objectifs de l’Union Mediterranéenne,la Mauritanie semble aussi vouloir relever le defi des pays de la sous region notamment en ce qui concerne la lutte contre le chômage,contre les defis du changement de climat et l’integration aux principes de la Mondialisation.
Beaucoup d’organismes de développement en synergie avec avec des ong nationales s’activent pour relever l’economie du pays. Auourd’hui la Mauritanie est membre entière de l’Union euro- mediterrenienne et entend comme ses paires apporter ses approches dans les secteurs d’intervention de cette nouvelle organisation inter-regionale. A cet effet Yakaare a eu à se faire dinstinguer brillament en gagnant au concours international organsé par l’Institut Européen de la Mediterrannée de Barcelone et surtout à béneficier de solides approches avec d’autres lauréats du concours ``une mer de mots´ lors de ses rencontres culturelles en Espagne ´,approches qui seront initiées à son retour en Mauritanie et qui permettront de lancer une nouvelle politique d’action visant à aider efficacement les jeunes handicapés à valoriser leurs talents de conteurs.
Eu égard à ce défit ambitieux et qui veut s’inscrire à long terme l’Ong Yakaare s’implique d’ores et déja à mettre sur pied un petit centre de documentation pour permettre aux jeunes handicapés de découvrir les richesses de la cultutre universelle. Des concours de poêmes,de théâtres,d’articles et des contes seront organisés annuellement sous la supervision de la mairie et avec l’appui du ministère de la culture.

  1. Youth and education
General Information
The" YouthArt- and CulturalCenter Schlesische27" is a Berlin institution rich in tradition working in the field of aesthetic education and perception training within an artistic and cultural context. In cooperation with artists and experts of varied disciplines, every year over 2000 young people experience and explore interdisciplinary questions designing their own creative visions of the world. Having started as a project to promote aesthetic education by ambitious artists in the 1970s, the organisation structure of our institution is horizontal, consisting of seven employed people within the administrative staff and about 50 artists working on project basis. Budgetary resources available in a year amount to 280.000 Euros, primarily funded by the senate office of Berlin, companies, friends and sponsors. On a local level our projects focus on a very haptic/manual approach to aesthetic education in close cooperation with local and international actors from a wide range of professional disciplines. Internationally we engage in the promotion of intercultural dialogue and organize exchange projects with young people from France, Poland, Turkey, Lebanon and Ramallah.
Mission and Objectives

In working with young people and artists, the focal point is the aesthetic attention of the young guests, an experimental and adventurous education of their senses through the arts. Developing one’s own creative abilities provides one with the best qualifications to actively participate in the process of forming society and living an active democracy.
Therefore, guideline of our institution’s work is the “optimal promotion through the arts”: every human is capable of creating! When creating, one gains identity and self-confidence – the foundation for performance abilities, broad-mindedness, commitment and capacity to work in a team. Based on an empowering pedagogic approach, art is an important promoter leading to defining moments effecting all areas of life.
To many young people, whose educational and personal development is not supported in their own surroundings, artistic and creative projects open up major scopes of action and development. In order to promote cross-cultural competence we emphasize on artistic and participative exchange projects on an international level.

Main Projects / Activities

Approximately 130 short- and long-term projects take place in our institution within one year. These range from artistic projects with school kids to self organized projects of young adults taking an active part in the urban, social and cultural development nationally and internationally. We are currently working on an artistic youth exchange programme with young people and artists from Lebanon and Germany addressing the topic of freedom, self-determination and democracy through creative writing and experimental performance.

How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

As we are a well-established institution within the Berlin “cultural landscape”, we would be very happy to support the network partners with our expertise, experience and contacts. Not only being in contact with many active artists and partner cultural institutions in Berlin, but also with committed young people based in Berlin and Europe, enables us to pro-creatively contribute to and cooperate in international cultural projects.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

Located in a Berlin district with young people of multi-ethnic, in particular Arabic, background we feel the urge to even further promote cross-cultural dialogue, especially with the Arabic world and provide our young guests with the opportunity to get in contact and exchange with young people from other countries – especially with youngsters, living in home-countries of our young migrant neighbours. We very much hope to be able to establish fruitful contacts to the partners in the network and conjointly develop projects. We look forward to exchange with the partners within the ALF network on experience in creative, democratic education and to promote active youth exchange within the network. The Schlesische27 offers 30 years of best practice and experience in international youth exchange.
