What was the main topic of the project?

Gleb Pušin - How to create your own project.

Jekaterina Fiter - Youth Exchange.

Aire Sellal - Key Action 1 Youth Exchange projects.

Maksym Kiselov - Non-formal education.

What were the biggest learning moments of the event for you?

Gleb Pušin - Designing your own session.

Jekaterina Fiter - Personal session.

Aire Sellal - I learned how to design, implement, and evaluate non-formal educational activities in youth exchanges. This training course was perfect opportunity to share good (and bad) practices with other participants.

Maksym Kiselov - Generating ideas --> Analysing --> Choosing.

Do you have any plans to continue being active in the field? If yes, in which way?

Gleb Pušin - I want to participate in 2 more similar projects(need more knowledge) and then create my own.

Jekaterina Fiter - Yes, organize my own exchange.

Aire Sellal - Yes! Local youth and I are planning to organise a youth exchange in Setomaa.

Maksym Kiselov - Organizing a new student organization at TalTech University to support the startup ecosystem. Our team is planning to host a variety of events!

Would you recommend this experience to your friends? If yes, why? If no, why not?

Gleb Pušin - I would recommend this experience, because when you are communicating with people from other cultures, you are changing your mindset and improve it.

Jekaterina Fiter - Yes, for teachers and youth workers.

Aire Sellal - Absolutely! I recommend Erasmus+ not only to my friends, but to everyone I meet. I strongly believe in non formal education and learning through experience. Erasmus+ offers equal opportunities to everyone. It is a great opportunity to travel, develop your skills, become aware of social realities and cultural differences and reinforce values such as solidarity, democracy and friendship.

Maksym Kiselov - Yes, definitely recommended. It's a great opportunity to gain a clear understanding of educational processes, practical experience working in a team to create non-formal education sessions, plus deeper insights into Erasmus+.

Other comments or anything else you would like to share? You can answer in your mother tongue, if you want!

Jekaterina Fiter - Very intense week I really enjoyed it! Thank you!
