🎥 A Glimpse from Our Erasmus Journey

Take a look at our unforgettable experiences in action!

🕊️ Time For Truth

In the first official "Time for Truth" workshop, we tackled two powerful topics: burnout and procrastination. Led by our volunteer from Hungary, this summer session opened a space for honest reflection and peer support. Participants connected over shared experiences and learned how to manage these everyday challenges in a safe, open environment.

The workshop became a weekly refuge for young people navigating social, mental, or emotional difficulties — a place for mutual advice, empathy, and collective growth. 💬 Together, they built a small but strong community of listening and resilience.

🌍 Arabic Workshop

Led by our youth worker from Morocco, this workshop offered a dynamic introduction to the Arabic language and culture. Participants gained foundational knowledge, cultural insights, and a sense of curiosity about the Arabic-speaking world.

🏅 At the end of the program, participants received certificates recognizing their dedication and new skills — a moment of pride and achievement for everyone involved.

🇹🇷🇬🇷 Similarities between Türkiye & Ελλάδα

Inspired by his roots, our volunteer from Türkiye created an engaging series of workshops exploring the cultural parallels between Greece and Türkiye. Each session focused on a different element: cuisine, music, hospitality, language, and traditions.

From Syrtaki and Halay to shared dishes and identical words, participants uncovered deep connections between the two nations. By the end, they had formed a deeper appreciation for this intertwined heritage — a celebration of unity through culture. 🌿
