Until now we have implemented several Youth in Action/Erasmus + projects such as youth exchanges, trainings, EVS and strategic partnership projects as coordinators. All our youth projects have as beneficiary disadvantaged young people: Roma young people, youth from foster care, youngsters from rural area and youth coming from very poor communities.
We were involved as partners until now in more than 80 youth projects, where we sent participants with fewer opportunities coming from very poor and disadvantage communities from small groups up to 35 people groups.
