Youth, Please!

Youth, Please! Association is a youth NGO based in Iași, Romania, created from the desire to connect young people across Europe and offer them access to learning opportunities beyond formal education. Through intercultural experiences, the organization helps young people discover different cultures, ways of thinking and social practices, while encouraging dialogue, cooperation and mutual understanding. Our activities focus on Erasmus+ youth exchanges, trainings and educational initiatives addressing relevant topics for today’s generation such as mental health, sustainability, entrepreneurship and personal development. We aim to help young people develop competences, self-confidence and adaptability in a rapidly changing digital society. The association pays special attention to young people with fewer opportunities, offering them the chance to travel, interact internationally and access experiences they might not otherwise have. By learning from other cultures and environments, participants become more open-minded, responsible and prepared for their professional and social future. We also promote sustainable thinking and well-being awareness among youth, supporting balanced lifestyles and critical thinking in the digital era. Motto: Connecting youth across Europe Core Goals 1.
