Good4Youth - GOOD PRACTICES FOR A BETTER YOU(th): Empowering youth well-being

Aims & objectives

The main aim of the “GOOD4YOU(th)” project is to
allow the participants to acquire a better awareness and understanding of how to improve their lives or the lives of those they work with, keeping adolescents healthy and active, and encouraging them to take an active role in managing their health, and guiding them towards improved self-care habits. The project will empower the youth workers in unveiling the adolescents’ potential to become the healthiest version of themselves - with all working together towards taking care of their own and others’ physical and mental health.
The ultimate aim of the project is to foster a culture of shared culture of youth wellbeing at the
transnational level, where national frameworks are not necessarily relevant, effective or attractive to young people.
