This youth exchange is about discovering how looking after our body and mind can help us feel stronger, happier, and more connected. Through outdoor sports, mindfulness practices, creative workshops, and open discussions, you’ll explore ways to manage stress, build healthy routines, and create safe, inclusive, and bully-free spaces. Together, we’ll turn simple daily actions into powerful tools for wellbeing – while building friendships and enjoying intercultural moments surrounded by the natural beauty of Portugal.
The project will take place from 10 to 18 September 2025 and will bring together 25 young people (aged 18–30) and 5 group leaders from Portugal, Poland, Ukraine, Czechia, and Slovakia. It’s a space to learn, recharge, and return home ready to take care of yourself and promote a culture of respect and inclusion in your community.
