In June, the Erasmus+ youth exchange programme "Feel the Nature" took place in the village of "Veliki Žitnik" in Croatia, aiming to raise awareness among young people on issues related to the environment and their way of life.

The objectives of the project are the participants:

• To connect with nature through outdoor experiential learning

• To learn about human responsibility towards the environment, about sustainability and environmental activism

• To research, plan and organize an environmental action for the local community 

See below how the people who participated from Greece describe their experience:

"My experience in the programme “Feel the nature” was unique. I had the opportunity to meet so many people from different countries and learn about their language and culture. But what I liked the most was the contact I had with nature, since during the whole programme nature was everywhere." - Melina

"The experience was unique, I hope to have more opportunities in the future to participate in similar programs and I hope to motivate other young people to do the same!" - Panagiota

“Being a part of a small community of people who want to change the world together has been a privilege! Making an impact and motivating each other as a team really opened my eyes to new possibilities and perspectives!” - Ioanna

“The purpose of this project has been fulfilled as I learned a lot about making an impact as an individual and working together with others as a team! Socializing, hiking, dancing, playing with other participants helped me practice my english and spanish as well as my people skills.”         - Xenia

 The program is co-funded by the European Union.
