Over 4,000 youths participated in the various workshops, dealing with psychology, photography, dance, music and much more. Judging by the turnout and the massively enthusiastic reaction from all participants - Turkish, Greek and European - the Festival was deemed hugely successful. Several cities in Greece and Turkey have already showed interest in organizing a similar festival. The project aims at improving the mutual understanding of the two societies, both amongst themselves and toward third parties.
