Our projects in Switzerland
imagine
The project for diversity and against discrimination
In 2001 terre des hommes schweiz launched a project involving extensive collaboration with youth in Switzerland. Today, imagine is more than just a project; it has evolved into an ongoing programme. The imagine team not only organises events with widespread appeal that tie in with important social issues – they also conduct workshops on these topics that are designed for and with the local youth. The side events, the festival and the workshop are all designed and conducted by a team of over 40 volunteers.
