WEEK ...hmmm...
One amazing meeting was created few days ago in the city! :)
On Wednesday 10th of February, in the Center Amarant, some of our HORYZONTY team went to a event with refugees from Ukrania, Chechenia, Crimea, Poland, Tayikistan and Kirguistan! They were from 8 to 19, plus the coordinators of their organization. Some of them arrived 8 years ago, but others 2, 3 or 4 years ago.
Now they live in Warsaw, so for most of them, that was the fisrst time they came to Poznan.
The first day(8th) we were just playing games to meet and know each other! There were a lot of great and funny games, were everyone was involved. Besides the difficulties with the polish languague, We think that We were integrated, but we would like to talk more with some of them fluently, was a really shame! Then, We went home and They were exploring the city, cause they rested in the city for 3 days!
The day after (Thursday 9th), We met in the Royal Castle. We couldnt have better place to meet! There We also met some educators from Poland that wanted to join the event! There, inone big room of the Castle they were explaning how they got there, the difficuties they had, the protocols, their past, their present and also the dreams that They have for the future! We enjoyed that day like the most. They were talking in polish, but thank of the amazing ranslator support we could understand everything.
The last day, just Helen could go, and she really enjoyed, cause they were showing one theater piece that they were preparing for a lot of years in the center they normally meet, in Warsaw.
Was an great experience for us, looking forward other events in Poznan or around Poznan like that. We learn a lot in just those 3 days!

After the spectator have a discussions with the refugies actor but i don't know whats is it exactly because its in polish, its really shame for me.
In centre amarant we have like the events but we don't have understood all because he speak in polish and its not translate in english all the time.
The people inside this centre is really nice and they are the good open-minded.
This events its really interresting because in the show i have see the danse of difference culture and how is the war for their and how they the feeling with the war, and we have see a nice people with positive attitude.
