"A friend in need is a friend indeed"
We had a very warm welcome from the L’Arcobaleno Servizi.
We found out very nice, positive and optimistic people, and we create an heterogeneous group.
Together we played stimulating games, trought we learned interesting facts about ourselves and connections with the others.
Coffee break and lunch were other opportuninties to socialized, and know more about ourselves also the game we played in pairs, like the “Broken Circle”.
The day was finished with a nice trip in Parma.
We are looking forward to meeting tomorrow to achieve new goals and to learn interesting facts about us and about italian culture.

In the morning we learnt about personal relationships and about handling conflicts with other people. More specifically, we learnt about the difference between passive and aggressive behaviours and how to replace them with assertive ones.
The best part of the day was the drawing and painting exercise. It was challenging and creative to express ourselves in similar ways as we did it as children.
In the afternoon, we had a very nice guided tour in the historical center of Reggio Emilia, where visited all the sites, despite of the cold weather.
During the visit, we had an homework to take two pictures: one to give as a gift to a friend and another one that it is similar to our home.

Today in the morning we had a role-play about real situation in our lives, we acted it. Then we drew our feelings and ideas about our Past, Future and Present. Also we showed and talked about the materials which we brought from our countries and special for us. In the afternoon we had a Relaxation Lab which relaxed all of us… Thanks for your friendly and hospitable approach!!

Last but not least, I feel complex today. I am happy to meet all my friends from different parts of the world. I am sad to finish such a useful and effective workshop. Anyway I have learnt so many activities I will use in my daily and professional life. Thank You L’Arcobaleno and my good friends. Think positive and keep in touch : )

This day most probably was the saddest one, but at the same time it’s like a reflection time. Some moments of joy, some regrets etc. I am happy that I got the chance to be here and try some new experience. BIG thanks to everybody and good luck for the future!
(Evja)

Today I understand better the meaning of a verse from a song.
"It’s nice to be important but it’s more important to be nice"
We worked together and laughted a lot, we made a wonderful group.
Thanks a lot of everybody and to the organizers!

DISSEMINATION PLAN: I' D LIKE TO BRING THIS EXPERIENCE ...

I’d like to bring this experience… in my daily day, I have the better selfconfidence. When I’am speaking English. It is very important in my job. Words are empathic, positive, not aggressive are very important for my job and private life too ...because I think that…for my life is important to be positive and positive thinking. The collaboration between people is important too. For me and for other people too. (Jarmila)

I’d like to bring this experience… to all groups to my friends, mostly parents with young children. Also I shall tell to peoplein my country not to hesistate in participating in that kind of international activities: this is possible and very useful …because I think that… methods that the new technologies and my learn in this workshop is very useful to improve relationships between family members and also friends and colleagues. (Liga B.)

I’d like to bring this experience… to the people of my country to everybody I know because it is a great experience of getting to know other nationalities, to be tolerant (train being tolerant and accepting) towards any kind of differences also found similarities and things to share with... because I think that… these kind of activities are giving benefit not only on an individual level, but also on a wider level, mainly on a social level, but I am more that other kind of workshop are beneficial in other ways-economical etc. Positiveness over all activities. (Evija)

I’d like to bring this experience… to my family, to my colleagues, to my friends and especially to me…because I think that… it is usefuyl for all of us to know how to make friendship, socializing experience. How to express yourself in art, moving, dance, theatre. Hot to successful communicate in assertive way. We can easier understand, recognise other people communication methods – passive or aggressive and react in assertive way. If You are openminded it is easy to contact. People from different countries, ages, experiences, all together choose friendship, love, fun and knowledges. It is common values, and at the same time we are unique personalities. It is good to know English and communicate.  (Ilze)

I’d like to bring this experience… all my friends and relatives who I think could use the methods that I learnt here in this week …because I think that… not only teachers or people who work for with children con find this workshop useful, but everybody who wants to get to know himself/herself better and wants to make new friends and have found new experiences about life or relationships. (Edina)

I’d like to bring this experience… to my relationship with my friends and parents, family and at work; to my daily life, with people that I meet for the first time; in my relationship with myself …because I think that… it is good way to express yourself more easily and discuss with people in a free way, not be afraid of share feelings and thoughts, expecially in a different language. (Emil Paul)

I’d like to bring this experience… to my friends and family first of all, as well as to the members of my team whom I will lead towards our common goals/vision in my next job…because I think that… the techniques that I have learnt in this workshop can maintain the integrity of any team in a good way by creating an inspirited atmosphere, engages people in their task, lift up people’s mood, create emotional bonding, promote team spirit, raise the confidence level to the individuals and brings a lot of joy to everybody.

It is easy to apply in daily life can be applied at different places and companies. (Anca)

I’d like to bring this experience… my colleagues at school, to inform my headmaster and school inspector about this type of workshop through a PPT presentation; my friends telling them about this particular workshop; my daughter; students and their parents; community (local community) …because I think that… it is important to share my experience in the workshop, to explain the different kinds of communication (assertive, passive, aggressive) and how one can transform and aggressive behaviour into an assertive one (either in private life and at work). Also a good point is to create and encourage groups relationship based on a positive way of thinking. (Daniela)

You know a lot about YOURSELF here …because I think that… this workshop helped me to revise myself. I learnt how to be controlled or I learnt sharing, physically and emotionally my feelings from other creativity and drawing and painting and feelings. It helped me to improvemy project part of brain. (Bahar)

I’d like to bring this experience… to Bulgaria to my friends and to NGO’s that I’m working for, also to my partners that we work together …because I think that… in my country not so much people and organization athat have experience like the others one countries from European Union.
