About Caravan 2000

Caravan 2000 believes that it is good for all people to see and meet other people from all over the world.

We try to find new ways for people from different countries to talk to each other in every day life.

“Caravan 2000 International, a European Movement for Diversity and Understanding.”  It was established in 1996.

We first came together to arrange a symbolic journey across Europe and the Middle East.

On this journey we wanted to look at the places and situations in which people lacked opportunities to prosper as they should or could.

These situations are often unfair and still affect large groups of people in Europe and in the rest of world for no good reason.

The leading members of Caravan 2000 come from many different countries in Europe as well as from Turkey and Israel.

They represent organisations for people with disabilities, for disadvantaged young people, for people working with disadvantaged people, their supporters and people with related roles.

The most important value shared by members of this movement is that every human being is equal regardless of ethnicity, gender, religion and ability.

We thus appreciate each person’s individuality as a unique person. We base our activities on human rights as the basis for equal opportunity and the right to full participation in society.
