After months of preparation, planning and organization, "Ottopia - The European Children's City Magdeburg" started today. Organized and carried out by the European Youth Education Centre Magdeburg (EJBM), more than 110 young people will meet as part of the large-scale educational project.
Since July 12, 50 children and young people from a dance group from Kharkiv have been guests at the European Youth Education Center Magdeburg (EJBM). As part of the “One Week of Peace” project, an initiative of the EJBM and the Diocese of Magdeburg's Partnership Action East, the young guests are experiencing a week full of light-heartedness and normality far away from the war in their home country.
