Cazalla Intercultural is a local NGO located in Lorca, a city in the south-east of Spain in the region of Murcia. It was founded in 1994 and since then we have developed many activities in the field of youth work. We aim to promote mobility of our young members so that they can take part in international youth exchanges because we think it is the best way to fight intolerance and racism – which are currently very important issues in the Spanish society – and usually result in opening people´s minds. In the last four years we have moved from leisure youth activities to social and integration ones. At the moment we are very much involved in the social field related to young immigrants and disadvantaged youngsters and in this sense we are working in these issues organizing educational activities like language courses for young immigrants and some support classes for immigrant children
