- the discovery of the potential and criticalities of rural areas and the use of resources: the project in fact envisaged that the participants carry out a residential exchange in the woods, at the Crazy forest or "base camp". Given the peculiar location, they lived in close contact with nature, in an extra-urban context in which the "natural" comforts typical of the city took on different connotations. All the basic services were obviously present, but they were relocated to a space that did not include the domestic walls and extended into a wooded area. In this way the participants were able to understand that the services they are used to (water, electricity, gas) do not have an obvious origin and that their use must be dosed intelligently. For example, there has never been a shortage of water, both for drinking and for washing, but from the very first days the boys were asked to make good use of it, also underlining the drought condition in which Italy found itself during the summer. . At the same time, being in a rural context, the participants were able to experience activities of exploration of the natural context and collection of materials useful for carrying out activities related to Land Art, they visited small community contexts present in the vicinity where self-production is practiced of food and thanks to the kitchen shifts they learned to make the best use of the products present, devising menus that satisfied everyone's needs and avoiding food waste. - knowledge and implementation of good coexistence practices: living in close contact with many people can be a challenging experience from the point of view of maintaining good relationships. In a community context each person finds himself having to deal with the affirmation of his own individuality and belonging to the group. The Erasmus Exchange participants were aged between 14 and 18, in which both instances are essential for maintaining a good degree of psychological and relational well-being. Within the Exchange, moments of collective organization were therefore proposed which envisaged the choice of daily work shifts, oriented towards the good maintenance of the conditions of the base camp, and moments of leisure and socialization within which the participants could propose and manage the activities . Individual youth leaders also monitored the conditions of their own group of participants, reporting to the Exchange coordinator on a daily basis the needs of the participants and working together to address them.
