Our goal is to facilitate exchange of experiences between young people in order to raise the level of information, and tolerance, as well as to increase youngsters’ awareness with regards to different cultures and attitudes, promoting unity in diversity. Y.E.S. contributes to the sensitization and interconnection of youngsters throughout various means such as workshops, seminars, conferences, international exchanges, to name just a few, all planed and designed with the greatest cure to bring together participants with different backgrounds and experiences from all over Europe. A key aspect is to ensure the visibility of our activities and to stimulate the active participation of our members and collaborators through round-tables, discussion groups, but also, by keeping a close collaboration with our partners from the media.
