Headliners , Belfast - Northern Ireland
Hey
My name is Lisa and I am one of the lucky participants from Germany. I am twenty one and currently studying media and communication in a big city in the east of Germany, Leipzig.
I spend the last year doing an European Voluntary Service in Belfast. I was working at a youthmedia project called Headliners. Headliners is a UK-wide news agency producing news, features and comment by young people.Through a unique learning through journalism programme, young people aged 8 to 19 research and write stories on issues that are important to them for publication in national and local newspapers, magazines, television and radio.
In Belfast we were concentrating on short movies and photography. In the office are working two full-staff members, 2 part-time workers and 2 EVS volunteers. We did a lot of outreach work in schools for pupils with special needs. This wee video is a short film about Headliners and I think the young people creating this did a fairly good job telling you what this project is about. As well you get a little insight of my working place.
I really look forward to get to know all of you soon.
Cheers, Lisa

Youth Group “ Novos em Cristo” - Portugal
My name’s Orlando. I’m a teacher and I have 28 years old. I came from a village called Sande São Martinho, near two big cities: Braga and Guimarães – Portugal.
I’m the leader of the Youth Group “Novos em Cristo”.
We are a Christian Catholic group. Our work is in our local area. The members are 15-24 years old. We discuss religion and actual social problems (drugs, aids, sexuality, etc.) at weekly meetings and we also help people with social and economic problems. Sometimes we visit them to keep them company. Another thing we do is visit orphanages or the prison. We organize Youth meetings and we like to walk and pray. We already have made pilgrimages from Braga (north of Portugal) to Fátima (south of Portugal) on foot and from Braga to Santiago de Compostela (Spain). Fátima and Santiago de Cospostela are two big centres for pilgrims. We have already taken part in the International Youth Meetings in Italy and Germany.
