Partner Project: The Secret to a Healthy life is Sport!

Sport is a powerful tool that supports not only physical health, but also the mental and social development of individuals. Based on this understanding, we aimed to contribute to the creation of a healthy life culture among young people in the Erasmus+ Youth Exchange project held in Rome, Italy between 20-28 September 2024. A total of 50 young people from Ukraine, Turkey, Hungary, Georgia and Italy came together, centred on the main theme of the project, sports and health.

Throughout the project, participants had the opportunity to discover the importance of healthy sports habits, learn different types of sports and gain first aid skills. In addition to individual-oriented sports such as yoga, cultural and social activities were also organised, allowing young people to learn from each other. In particular, each country introduced a sport branch specific to its own culture, once again demonstrating the unifying power of sports.

Our project was not only limited to sports, but also provided the participants with the skills of teamwork, creative thinking and interaction with different cultures. The activities, which emphasised the fun aspects of sports, motivated young people to make sports a part of their daily lives.

Young people experienced that sport is not only for health, but also a tool for building friendships, breaking prejudices and building a better future.
