This exchange aims to get participants familiar with the fact that sport makes a significant contribution to our wellbeing, playing also an important role in the development of ones personality but in the same time influencing development of the economy, environment and society in general. Through this exchange we want to use sport and recreation as a tool for improvement of youth’s quality of live giving them the knowledge and tools that will raise their motivation, self-development, self-reliance, as sport has the power to act as a mobilizing tool in a way that no other activities do. Combining fun, enjoyment and physical challenges we want to encourage young people to participate in sport activities in order to promote social interaction and well being. This should lead to development and sustainability of a healthy lifestyle and a life long attitude in adulthood among participants.Exchange will last eight days.
