ABOUT THE PROJECT
The Youth Exchange is a chance for young people from Bulgaria, Estonia, Greece, Bosnia, Latvia, and Spain to come together and learn from each other. The project focuses on developing personal aliveness and self-expression. That means encouraging young people to be themselves and express their thoughts and feelings in their own unique way. By doing this, participants can learn more about who they are and become more confident in expressing themselves. Additionally, the project aims to foster personal leadership and inclusion. This involves teaching leadership skills and making sure everyone feels included and valued, regardless of their background or differences. By learning how to lead and include others, participants can prepare themselves for taking on active roles in different environments.
The project seeks to promote the importance of digital literacy. In today’s digital age, it’s important for young people to be comfortable using technology. By incorporating digital skills training, the project ensures that participants are equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to navigate the digital world confidently.
Overall, this project aims to provide young people with the tools and support they need to thrive personally, socially, and digitally. By focusing on building connections, fostering self-expression, developing leadership skills, enhancing social skills, and promoting digital literacy, the project sets participants on a path toward success and fulfillment in all areas of their lives.
