OLE: Outdoor Leisure Education project is a youth mobility project, more exactly an EVS project focused on the outdoor activities. Assuming that more and more young people spend their free time in a sedentary and solitary way, this projects provides an extremely generous setting for exploring transnational volunteering solutions using outdoor/ sports activities in relation with the members of the target group from Arad/Romania. The young people that will be part of this EVS mobility will be from Macedonia, Portugal and Spain (9 people in total) and will work in mixed teams for 11 months (starting from 15th of April 2015). The main objectives of the projects: - Develop the social capital of the young people involved in the project (EVS Volunteers), encourage and develop their ability to get involved in the society; develop skills that will contribute to their employability and respectively to their prosperity and social inclusion across Europe and beyond. - Making the members of the target group of the project, the 50 children (10-14 years) and youth (15-30 years) from Arad, aware of the importance of movement for their lives and health. The main activities of the project, thought so as to answer the needs of the EVS volunteer and exclusively based on non-formal educational methods, include among others the following: 1) Horsemanship as form of outdoor leisure activity and of personal development within Pony Club.
