Legis took part in the second “Living diversity” training in Bad Bevensen, Hamburg, Germany, organised by Gustav Stresemann Institute.
From 15th to 22nd October 2023, participants and trainers from Germany, Poland, Romania, Italy, and North Macedonia took part in the one week youth training, supported by Erasmus + programme.
In a very good working atmosphere, participants were able to learn about basic human rights, the meaning of activism, and to learn from the positive practice of the present organisations.
Jasmin Redjepi, in behalf of Legis, as one of the trainers, had the opportunity to explane the situation with migrants and refugees in North Macedonia, the Balkan Route of movement, and the role of Legis on the field of migration and protection of human rights from 2014 to 2023. He explained one of the oldest remarkable definitions for activism, how an activist in the society must act:
“Whoever among you sees bad deed in the society, let him change it with his hand (act).
If he can not do so, then with his tongue (talk or write about it).
If he can not do so, then with his heart (to never remain indifferent to bad deeds in the society).”
This is easy to learn, but at the same time, very useful three level guidelines and a strong message to every avtivist, to never remain silent or become indifferent to the wrong phenomena at society.
