In this playlist, you will learn how to build and prepare your group for a youth exchange. Having young people involved from the very beginning helps them develop a sense of belonging and ownership of the project. It will also bring a sense of quality to the project and a chance for leaders to experience youth work good practice.
It is recommended that all partners begin from involving young people at the very start of the project, regardless of whether they are a sending or a hosting group.
