Visit by girls from Wycombe Youth Action
Wycombe Youth Action is a charity organisation in High Wycombe, and started working with Kelkheim in November 2016.
In May 2017, a get-together and preparation meeting took place in High Wycombe
The project is financed by Erasmus+ and the city of Kelkheim
The girls' meeting is themed "Empowerment of young women in Europe - empowering young women in Europe"
The visit was of a group of ten girls between the ages of 14-19 from High Wycombe and two carers.
The participating girls from Kelkheim were kindly freed from class by the school administrators of the respective schools for this time
The range of topics the girls examined included:
- The woman in society and in the media;
- The body image of the woman;
- Future prospects and opportunities;
- Tour through Kelkheim and visit to the museum with Mr. Rüdiger Kraatz with a view to the gender roles and to the various women who find themselves on street names in Kelkheim;
- Tour through Frankfurt.
A reunion is expected in August 2018.
The next event will be a trip by a group from Kelkheim to High Wycombe in 2018. This is likely to take place in September.
