Youth exchanges allow groups of young people from different countries to meet, live together and work on shared projects for short periods. Youth exchanges take place outside the school environment. On a youth exchange, you can expect to
participate in activities such as workshops, exercises, debates, role-plays, outdoor activities, simulations that they planned for and prepared before the youth exchange.
Participants’ learning experiences are recognized through a Youthpass.
Youth exchanges last between 5 and 21 days. This excludes travelling time. They are open to people between the ages of 13 and 30. To be a group leader in a youth exchange, you must be at least 18 years-old. Youth exchanges are managed by youth organizations, informal groups of young people or other organizations.
