The idea of a youth exchange has been born thanks to today’s declining physical activity habits among youth, which is related to the current changing labor market, which favors sedentary occupations, low mobility and economic well-being. It is enhanced by marketing,forming our traditions and preferences. This youth exchange provided knowledge about dietary health risks as well as the risks associated with daily habits. During the youth exchange, we found a common approach to both healthy eating and having good physical habits. Participants in this youth exchange were interested in acquiring knowledge about healthy eating and analyzing everyday habits. The youth exchange was hold in Estonia in August 2021, during which young people learnt from each other through games and creativity-enhancing tasks through non-formal learning about risks arising from their habits of their everyday life and finding healthy alternatives to them. The knowledge gained in this youth exchange gave participants more information for healthy choices in life.
