✨ With healthy lifestyle for inclusion
🤗 Youth exchange
🗓 24.08-1.09.2024
📍 Poronin, Poland

Just returned to Cyprus, and we’re energized to keep the spirit of the With Healthy Lifestyle for Inclusion youth exchange project alive! 🌍✨
In Poland, we connected with youth from five countries to explore environmental and health awareness, sharing skills and experiences with young people from diverse backgrounds. Now, we’re bringing this inspiration back home by organizing events to promote a healthy lifestyle for all. From yoga to mental wellness, we’re sharing ways to care for both body and mind. Ready to join us in building a healthier, more inclusive community?
