Who we are

Stichting CODINE is a non for profit organization based in the Netherlands. It is a member organization of ADYNE (African Diaspora Youth Network in Europe) and of IYPG (International youth peace group).

Welcome to Stichting Codine

Stichting Codine works in the empowerment of the African diaspora in Netherlands and in Europe. It also seeks to foster the integration of ethnic minorities and young people from migrant communities in the European sphere.

It does so through :

1) Providing the platform where young people with fewer opportunities can meet and network with policy makers to discuss and prescribe solutions to their challenges.

2) Conducting Erasmus+ youth mobility projects where African diaspora youths can meet, network and build symbiotic partnerships with their European counterparts.

3) Providing support, mentorship and counselling to young people from migrant communities, low income households and ethnic minorities so that they are socially, digitally, economically and democratically included in the European way of life.

Informality

In the conduct and delivery of our projects we use nonformal learning techniques. We use methods such as role plays, group simulations, peer learning approach, walking debates, world cafes and presentations. These methods have proven very effective when dealing with young people from disadvantaged backgrounds and youth with fewer opportunities.
