The tool “Testimonies for Youth’s memories Box” is a result of the questionnaires, interviews and living library activities from YOUTH’S MEMORIES BOX 2015-2-RO01- KA105-015435, project financed by European Commission, through Erasmus+ programme.

Aims of the tool

You can use the Memory Box in multiple ways: there are people without opportunities, or without families and they do not have such “testimonies”, there are around you men or women with Alzheimer, for which these flashes could bring back some personal memories, there are volunteer meetings or school activities where you can use the booklet as starting point and develop more other themes.

Description of the tool

Between 12th - 22nd December 2015 , 9 Spanish volunteers and 9 Romanian volunteers, accompanied by 2 leaders, participated to a youth exchange, in Brebina, Baia de Arama, Herculane and Drobeta Turnu Severin, Romania.There were 10 days of non-formal travel/journey in the European youth style of living from the 1940s to the contemporary time in XXI century.
Back in their communities, the volunteers continued to involve other youngsters from their area in the research about youth style of living in the 7 decades, the 40’s, the 50’s, the 60’s, the 80’s, the 90’s-2000 and the XXI century.
The comments, the answers, can be found here, in Testimonies for Youth’s Memories Box. The family pictures from the booklet are 100% originals, and 90% of them where never shown before to the public eyes. Around 8% of the information is from www.wikipedia.com and www.europa.eu .
