ABOUT CONSTANȚA
Constanta, located on the Black Sea coast, is the oldest living city in Romania,
founded around 600 BC. For centuries , Constanta was known as TΟΜΙΣ and
experienced the Greek, Macedonian, Roman or Turkish occupation. This now
explains the fact that more minorities recognized by Romanian law can be found
here than anywhere else in Europe.
Besides Romanian, Turkish, Greeks, Ukrainians, Tatars, Macedo -Romanians,
Armenians, Russians, Gypsies, Jewish, Bulgarians and others currently l ive in
peace here, crowning Constan ța as a true melting pot and purveyor of
multiculturalism.
Constanța is now
the capital city of
the identically-
named county, the
fifth largest city in
Romania and also
its main harbour.
Its adjacent areas
hold tens of
beaches ready to
be discovered.

ELEMENTS OF THE SESSION
The structure of an EYP session will be strictly followed, participants will be attending Teambuilding,
discussing their topics during Committee Work (at the accommodation venue) and debating the
resolutions in the General Assembly. Additionally, the program will delight participants with: Intercultural VILLAGE and Country/Regional
PRESENTATIONS
The Village will take place on the first evening and represents a cultural
exhibition.
For the first part of the Village, each
country/region delegation must organise
a table that represents the place they are
coming from and their cultural
background. You have to bring traditional
food and products, a country flag,
information brochures and pictures etc. –
be creative! Traditional costumes are also
encouraged.
For the second part of the Village, the
members of the country/region
delegation have to come up with a short presentation that best illustrates the place
they are coming from (2-3 minutes: folkloric-song, dance or a small sketch in English
for the delegation presentation). All country/region delegation members have to be
involved in this presentation. Originality is appreciated.
Have in mind that you are not allowed to bring alcoholic drinks to the session as it is
a cultural, educational event.

TOMIΣ Concert
Musician delegates will have the opportunity to show their musical talents. Musicians
will rehearse before the concert. The event is also going to be attended by local
officials.
Any participant –
delegate, teacher or
official – is encouraged to
perform. We embrace
diversity, so feel free to be
creative and different, but
keep in mind that the
organisers only provide a
piano and microphones,
so any other instruments
and extra equipment has
to be brought by you.

participants will receive specific certificates.
