On June 15 and 16 (excluding travel days), we conducted the Preparatory Visit to discuss important project details of @embrace_yourself_project . Each partner organization @forward_for_future @_mkreativa_ @wonders_of_milas @ga.szo sent two representatives to attend this activity: one young participant who will take part in the youth exchange and one organizational representative.
The aim was to closely engage and deeply involve all participants in this project, ensuring that “Embrace Yourself” becomes an enriching experience for both - our young people and the organizations involved.
Topics we discussed included:
Details about the Art Therapy Museum in the Metaverse
The agenda for the entire Youth Exchange
Touring the facilities where the Youth Exchange will be held
Discussing intercultural activities (e.g., visiting points of interest in Vienna)
Detailing activities and the program (e.g Expressive Arts framework)
Coordinating logistical matters (e.g., health issues)
Project dissemination
Providing space for feedback, suggestions, and discussions.
This activity has also been a wonderful opportunity to strengthen the team and the relationship between partners, and of course, for our young participants to get to know each other and create bonds with other participants.
Taking advantage of the good weather in Vienna, we toured this beautiful city, tasted traditional food and enjoyed a coffee (and cake!!) in its traditional coffee houses.
It was a wonderful experience and we can’t wait to meet everyone again in July.
