Café Kanal 2 - 26 av/pril 2011 – 19:45 YOUTH Stigmatization, creativity and hope Micro Marché - quai à la Houille 9 Steenkoolkaai – 1000 Brussels How can we bridge the growing socioeconomic gap between the central urban areas and the rest of the city? Where are all those unrecognized talents? How can we stimulate young people from those areas to believe in their own capabilities? How can they develop their self-respect and take their future into their own hands? What ‘new schools’ do we need to achieve this? How can creativity and enterprise be maximized? Where are the people with guts, daring and ambition? What are the dreams?
