Description: One of the key competencies of human life is, obviously, well-being. Many young people today, especially after and during the COVID-19 pandemic, have to endure many challenges to maintain their health. Numerous risks, that young people face, lead to higher rates of depression, melancholy, negative emotions, and overly much time in front of mobile phones and other.

Being inspired by the factors mentioned above, our organization and 4 program countries have jointly created this Youth Exchange program. 30 participants, coming from different EU countries, with different backgrounds and common goals will be there to improve and strengthen their knowledge about well-being, and health growth will make sports activities an inseparable part of their daily lives.

This project aims to help young people comprehend the importance of health and mental welfare, to value themselves, and help them to take action, and start to take care of their mental and physical health starting from a young age. We want to help the participants to learn how to deal with stress and win it without giving any harm to themselves.
