Youth exchanges

From 2009 our foundations develops youth exchange programs Erasmus+ in partnership with NGOs from Croatia, Macedonia, the Czech Republic, Spain, Italy, etc. The themes of the projects are diverse: from environmental protection, recycling and ecological education for primary school children, to the accessibility of educational institutions for people with locomotor disabilities and the social integration of young people with fewer opportunities.

Exchange programs are attended by young people between the ages of 16-30. The non-formal educational program includes workshops on topics such as: volunteering, first aid, active citizenship, theater, street dance, street art, experiments and visits to various public institutions, meetings with journalists and local decision-makers, short modules of practice in private companies. The program is completed with team building activities, socializing, parties and trips to the tourist attractions in the area.
