Eveli Kera – Ma sain väga palju targemaks. Mulle meeldis eriti rollimängud ja erinevate olukordade läbi mängimised.
Julius Liiv – I learned about the different definitions and systems of gender and sexual prefrences; tools to help me discuss the topic in schools and seeing how weirdly passionate some people are about almost made up issues.
Varvara Lyasheva – Hearing different opinions.
Do you have any plans to continue being active in the field? If yes, in which way?
Krista Pudel – I will use some of the tools from that workshop.
Eveli Kera – Eelkõige kasutan teadmisi enda igapäeva elus.
Julius Liiv – Only in teaching and discussing the topics at schools.
Varvara Lyasheva – Yes, I shall educate my friends about these topics.
Would you recommend this experience to your friends? If yes, why? If no, why not?
Krista Pudel – Yes, especially for young peole. It is an excellent opportunity to try something new and push your limits.
Eveli Kera – Jaa, sest saab palju uusi tutvuseid ja uusi teadmisi.
Julius Liiv – Yes 100% I recommend all erasmus + projects to others.
Varvara Lyasheva – No, I wouldn’t. Because my friends don’t like travelling.
Other comments or anything else you would like to share? You can answer in your mother tongue if you want!
Julius Liiv – I didnt like the training. A lot of judgement and “i am right , you are wrong” type of people. I grade it 2/10. I did like the experience in whole – even a negative experience is a valuable experience. Privileged. I did like some things and certain special people.
