YOUTH EXCHANGE „TOGETHER WE STAND“: FEEDBACKS
From 3rd to 11th of November we used our opportunity to participate in the Erasmus plus Youth Exchange „Together we stand“. 28 young people from Greece, Portugal, Spain, Italy and Germany gathered in the beautiful commune San Sebastiano da Po located in the province of Turin to discuss current questions of the young generation in our countries to empower them in their engagement and provide a platform for exchange and inspiration.
Staying at the Casino Bruno Cassa, the building that was confiscated from Italian mafia some years ago, we spent the days getting to know each other, debating and participating in different workshops that would open our horizons. Due to the large number of participants, the workshops were divided into smaller groups, but everybody was involved and we discussed our topics together. Our topics covered such problems as unemployment in our countries, global warming, mental health etc. Every morning we have some cool exercises to wake up and prepare ourselves to work. Cultural evenings are also a good thing you can experience by visiting Erasmus seminars. It’s the best way to introduce your culture and also learn something new about others. During this seminar we had a free day to visit the sightseeings of Turin. Some of us visited museums, others chose galleries, but all of us had a really great time there.
