More specifically Vissani is a village in Giannena that is far away from the city so that will give also the opportunity to young people from the village to participate in our activities. Also we will make a call in Salto about two facilitators that we are they are gonna help us achieve the expectations of the participants. What we want to achieve are those: Promote Health Education: To educate young participants about the importance of nutrition, physical activity, and healthy lifestyle choices, empowering them with the knowledge and skills to make informed decisions about their health.
