Objectives

Within the last months, the whole world changed and the usual way for everyone was shaked by COVID-19 virus. The lockdows, qurantine and self-isolation situations we all have found oursleves was something completely unexpected. As the result towards the situation, this project idea was born in the heads of several young people from our and our partner associations. We analysed the experience and found among all the young people similar traits: noone was really ready for this kind of lockdown neither morally, nor from the personal organisation point of view. This experience brought a lot of complications, linked to young people's psychological downs because of lack of usual socialisation, possibility to practise usual way of sports, disturbing their eating habits, problems with concentration, self organisation and much more. Thus, we built up all together this youth exchange with the objective to analyse together this lockdown experience and to help young people: -Find ways to strengthen their internal strength and stress resistance. -Learn to increase their motivation regardless of the circumstances. -To be able to find an occupation in a lockdown that brings pleasure and income. -Learn to relax even in the most difficult situations. -Learn non-stop, developing them self personally and improving skills. -Share useful thoughts and ideas with friends. -Protect them self and their family from troubles. -Interact effectively with people in isolation and much more. Havign realised the project, we believe that we managed to achieve successfully all those objectives. As a result, this project: -Gave the youth a sense of their inner strength. -Helped to see that they can be independent of circumstances and from anyone else. -Helped to develop and strengthen youth’s self-confidence and their actions. -Taught youth to understand and apply the principle of self-discipline and self-motivation in any life situations. Teach how to focus on the goal and find ways to achieve it. -Taught young people to relax and relax in time so as not to bring themselves to stress and burnout. -Helped youth to find options for continuous self-education and enhance personal and professional qualities, etc. The participants of this exchange were able to convey the value of self-development to their friends, thereby increasing the number of confident and successful people in their environment and much more.
