Know your worth (then add tax)

Hello fellow LIFE CHANGERS!

We are a group of young people, trying to succeed in organising our first Youth exchange!
We are applying for the Erasmus + Youth in Action programme. As the project is still in the early phase of development, we are
seeking for partners to encourage into helping us shape the program by actively participating in its development. The only thing
certain about the exchange is that it will be taking place in the end of August 2018 in Slovenia (for app. 9 days). The specific location is still unknown.

Who we are is Moving Borders Team – MBT, vol. III. We try to overcome limitations in ways of connecting internationally and
raising awareness on an intercultural level; on our way we defeat intercultural differences and strive for a long-lasting positive
effect of our activities. Fields that reflect our work are non-formal education, youth work on an international level with an
emphasis on organising youth exchanges.

We are members of Maribor Psychology Student's Association (http://www.dspm.si/),
which is a young, but engaged association, founded by the first generation of psychology students at the University of Arts Maribor
in 2009.

Our exchange will be named Know your worth (then add tax). The polemics we wish to address in this exchange are:
civic engagement/responsible citizenship, inclusion – equity and labour market issues incl. career guidance/youth
unemployment.
We want to reach out to marginalized and socially disadvantaged youth, empower them and help them learn skills and
competences in the area of personal growth, media literacy, critical thinking and active citizenship, which will enable them to
effectively reach their goals. In accordance to our vision, we will try to include as many participants with social obstacles, as possible.

The application deadline for the exchange is April 26 th 2018. Only after then will we find out if the project will be approved,
meaning if we get the funds for the realization.

We are looking for an organisation, really prepared to commit to this project. If we succeeded in gaining your interest, please
contact us for collaboration as soon as possible.
