New video about Daugavpils within the project “Get into the swing of the City! City news

The creative team of the project “Gen-Y City”, in cooperation with external experts, has launched a video of the project "Get into the swing of the city!" at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_ahwLUGAlE, which reflects the examples of good practice in Daugavpils, as well as the creative potential of the city. The video shows the diversity of Daugavpils, the fact that there are representatives of many nationalities and everyone speaks in their own language (video – in Latvian, Latgalian, Russian and Polish), but this does not prevent them from understanding each other and working together to make Daugavpils a place where they want to live, learn and work, as well as develop their selves creatively. Conversations AT the table symbolize the exchange of formal ideas, while the activities ON the table show how creatively the ideas are generated in our heads.
