My experience in youth exchange projects

The Youth Exchange project
“Train to maintain, teach to reach - 21st century competencies”
(July 15th – July 30th 2016)
Vukovar, Croatia
This project has brought young people from
Germany,
Croatia,
Serbia,
Bosnia and Herzegovina,
Romania,
Ukraine

The main topic of the project was the unemployment among young people.
We had lots of discussions, work-shops dedicated to this problem in many countries.

Also we had some sport activities like team-working games and competitions.

And lots of FUN!!! (informal education :D )

Our Ukrainian team and intercultural evening <3

New friends, new family all over the world!

The Youth Exchange project
“Different Cultures – One world”
(September 30th – October 09th 2016)
Chieti, Italy
There were 30 young people from Italy, Ukraine, Spain, Macedonia and Georgia.

We worked all day…
We worked on the topic of promoting culture of peace, anti-discrimination, better understanding of cultural diversity and multiculturalism in our world.

But it was the best and funniest work ever!!!)))

Especially when the project had a great organization!

A really unusual intercultural evening!!!

These projects give you a lot of travel experience!

Your perfect MOTIVATION LETTER: is it possible???
Motivation letter plays an important role in your application process, because of the fact that it shows your ability to present yourself from the best side and to point out how seriously you consider the project.
The best way is to divide your ML into some paragraphs to make it easier to read and understand it.
1. FIRST PART – YOUR INTRODUCTION
Make your letter more personal and try to address directly to the responsible/contact person. If you didn’t find any use the usual official letter form:
- Dear Sir or Madam,
Write how you came to the idea to participate in the Youth Exchange (EVS, training course), where you found the information about this project and organisation. Learn more about what this organization do, show your interest in their activities.
