Our Session 3 adventure reached new heights in Cozia National Park, Romania! 🏞️

Surrounded by breathtaking mountain views, we trekked through lush forests, discovering the incredible diversity of local flora and learning how these ecosystems sustain life and balance. 🌸

Through exploration and teamwork, participants deepened their connection with nature, understanding that every leaf, every root, plays a vital role in our planet’s harmony.

Because when we walk with nature, we grow with it. 🌿💚

From 18 to 27 May we participated in the Youth Exchange "Cultural Kaleidoscope" in Bordeaux (France). Let's have a look what our participants have to say about their experience:

"THE KALEIDOSCOPE ERASMUS+ PROJECT IN BORDEAUX, FRANCE, HAD A POWERFUL INTERCULTURAL IMPACT ON US. WE EXPERIENCED A FULL WEEK IN WHICH PEOPLE FROM DIFFERENT COUNTRIES (ROMANIA, GERMANY, RUSSIA, INDIA, AFGHANISTAN, TURKEY) SAT AT THE SAME TABLE, ATE AND PLAYED TOGETHER, AND SHARED DEEPLY ROOTED BELIEFS AND TRADITIONS FROM THEIR OWN CULTURES. IT WAS IMPRESSIVE TO LEARN ALL OF THIS THROUGH NON-FORMAL EDUCATION, BY LIVING TOGETHER, THUS UNDERSTANDING WHAT INCLUSION, PEACE. AND LOVE FOR PEOPLE TRULY MEAN."

În perioada 5-10 noiembrie, Asociația Youth Competency Development a trimis patru participanți în Antalya pentru a participa la proiectul „EthiTech” (Erasmus+ KA210-YOU). Proiectul a avut ca scop formarea acestora pentru a-i ajuta pe tineri in utilizarea etică a tehnologiei și a instrumentelor digitale, abordând subiecte precum siguranța online, identitatea digitală și responsabilitatea în mediul digital. Activitatea a avut o dimensiune interculturală, reunind participanți din România, Turcia, Germania și Olanda, și a inclus sesiuni practice, activități culturale și schimburi de experiență, promovând înțelegerea reciprocă și cooperarea internațională.
