Youth Exchange “Action - Healthy Reaction!!!”

 
 The main goal of this youth exchange is to promote the usage of sport activi-ties as part of everyday living, as well as promoting the intercultural dialogue between different nations by using sports as a tool. In sports, the same rules apply, regardless of the part of Europe where they’re played. By using sports, people don’t need the same language to understand each other, they just need to use the same passion in their hearts, no matter which country they are coming from or what is their social status.
 
For us, the sports are a very useful tool in the integration of the young people!
