Where is Izmir?"},"content":{"rendered":"

>\"\"<\/a>Following Nico<\/a>, last week I also went to a Network Meeting<\/a> to present CD – my NWM was going on in Izmir<\/span>, organised by AEGEE-Izmir<\/a> and Network Commissioner Ugur<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Although unfortunately we had few participants, it was still great atmosphere and people, 100% of them interested in AEGEE and taking part in workshops and training sessions<\/span>. As almost all of them were new AEGEE members, Ugur & me gave them the basic information about AEGEE, European level of AEGEE, project management, intranet and civil society (read: NGOs).\"\"<\/a>
After spending two days inside AEGEE-Izmir office (can we move CD House to their office, please?), everybody was so exhausted and tired, that NWM T-shirt slogan “Where is the beach?” was unofficially changed to “Where is Izmir?<\/span>” :)
\"\"<\/a>Indeed, in the first two days we saw nothing of the city as we were working and learning hard, therefore one afternoon & the day after was fully devoted to seeing the city and getting to know more about Turkish culture<\/span>, including long discussions about relationships between Turkish youth. Neverending topic… :)
\"\"<\/a>
I can’t mention also the evaluation session of the NWM,<\/span> where it turned out that apparently most of the organisers & participants learnt from each other more than from me & Ugur. When asking to name one thing they will take home from this NWM and they have learned the most, some interesting answers came out, e.g., I admitted that people in Izmir have very good level of English, but Cansu<\/a> was saying: “I learnt that Greek people walk very, very slow!”<\/span> Intercultural dialogue! :)<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
