Cine nu își dorește să petreacă 10 zile pline de joc și voie bună împletite cu un dialog cultural structural, menit să atragă atenția asupra dragostei și interacțiunii armonioase dintre oameni? Poate că vrem să cooperăm și să lucrăm mult mai bine în echipă, să folosim mai mult incluziunea socială, să practicăm relaționarea și comunicarea non-violentă, să depășim prejudecățile și să creem un mediu mult mai primitor, mai împăciutor. Atunci, proiectul "A touch of sLOVEnia" a fost șansa noastră să aprofundăm aceste competențe utile nouă, într-un secol al vitezei unde accentul nu este pus pe interacțiunea între oameni!
