In 2019, the TOIT+ takes place in Ukraine, a country in Eastern Europe which has been in the news for many years, following the Maidan revolution in 2014 and the still ongoing war in the Donbass region. TOIT+ stands under the slogan "Discovering the Unknown", as even so Ukraine is part of Europe, easily reachableby plane, many people still don't have vistited this country or have a relationship towards it. We want to change this. Therefore Young SIETAR is organizing for the first time an event in a country of the former Soviet Union and hopes that many interesed intercultural practioners will join.


The event will be spilt into two phases, the first being to arrive in the capital of Ukraine, Kyiv, and to dive into Ukrainian culture, getting a first idea of the complexity, but yet also the beauty of this country, and then take a 5 hour train ride to Kharkiv, the second largest city of Ukraine, former capital and nowadays the city in Ukraine with the highest number of students.


In Kharkiv the participants will have two full days of train the trainer, workshops designed by chosen longtime experts in the field.

We want to offer to the participants a unique experience and a perfect mix between local insights and practical input. Everybody interested in Discovering the Unknown is highly welcome to join us!
