The project Widening horizons aims at non-formal education of volunteers, mainly young people with fewer opportunities, aged 18 to 30. During their EVS, they will experience a difference in their life, gain skills through non-formal educaation, or in many cases also lead non-formal educational activities to others. This will greatly contibute to the empowerment process of the young people.
