At our events, your teenagers will develop countless soft skills and learn about Europe when debating current European issues. They learn to work together in creative problem solving and they learn to appreciate others’ opinions, all the while becoming more active citizens. At our events, we focus on intercultural exchange. Teambuilding is an important part of the event in the process as it is the time where participants will make new friends all over Europe. Our evening programmes, such as Eurovillage, where participants bring foods from diverse cultures, and Euroconcert, where participants perform, also encourage this intercultural exchange.
