Location: Valsamoggia, Italy

This youth exchange is designed for young people who want to explore identity, creativity, and intercultural dialogue while connecting with others and reflecting on their roots in a safe and inspiring international environment.

Participants will take part in interactive workshops and creative activities focused on self-expression, storytelling, and shared artistic processes. Through painting, drawing, sculpture, printing, collage, and creative writing, you will explore personal and cultural identity, share experiences, and transform individual stories into collective artworks. 

The programme combines non-formal education methods, experiential learning, teamwork, and collaborative creation to strengthen key competences such as communication, creativity, self-expression, active participation, and intercultural awareness. Special attention is given to creating a safe and creative space where participants can reflect on their roots, imagine sustainable futures, and contribute actively to a shared group process. During the exchange, participants will also work together on collective installations, visual stories, and performances, and the final outcomes will be shared through an exhibition-performance and a digital catalogue.

If you want to connect with people from different cultures, develop new creative skills, reflect on your identity, and be part of an inclusive and inspiring international experience, this youth exchange is for you!

Age of participants: 18 – 25, Team leader 18+

Accommodation and meals during the project will be free of charge. Travel expenses will be reimbursed according to Erasmus+ distance rules after the project.
