Call for partners - KA1 Youth Exchange
CALL FOR PARTNERS
What
This exchange has born with the aim of developing in young people a new conception of how to take care of themselves, both the body and mind, learning to understand he signals our body transmits to us.
In a much faster world, focused on the professional achievement’s and work, where the lack of time is becoming chronic, young people need to make a better use of their own free time. The identification of our needs is the way to reach a desirable balance away from stress and restlessness.
The World Health Organization defines health as “A state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not only the absence of affections or diseases”. The participation in the opportunities given by Europe is the key and the way to transmit this concept to young people so that, in the end, they are the ones who transmit it to others.
What for
The objectives of the youth exchange are:
-- Create a space for reflection on the importance of mental and physical health and how to take care of it;
- -Provide the tools to maintain the balance of the body, through nutrition, sports and meditation;
- -Improve self-awareness and self-esteem through activities such as meditation and emotional release;
- -Develop an attitude of respect for their health in young people through experiential learning with practices and workshops of natural products, that encourage their motivation to participate in non-formal education projects.
- -To maximize the exchange of experiences among young people, mutual learning and intercultural dialogue.
How
In the creation of this project all the partners have reflected on our daily life and physical health, emphasizing that today, each person is forced, because of today's most dynamic and stressful lifestyles, to put their body at times to the limit of its possibilities without giving time to the recovery of the same. Health is very important but due to the speed of the rhythm of
our lives, we do not give the necessary time neither to rest nor to take care of our body and our food.
