This project isn’t just about connecting — it’s about experiencing something exciting in an international, outdoor setting. You’ll take part in fun, outdoor group activities, where you’ll bond with people from all over Europe while exploring new environments. Whether it’s team challenges, outdoor games, or just hanging out in nature, these activities will help you form meaningful international friendships that could last a lifetime.
You’ll also get the chance to connect with other young people who might have faced similar mental health challenges or trauma. These shared experiences will create a supportive space for open conversations, empathy, and healing — all while enjoying the outdoors together. Whether it’s swapping stories during a hike or working together on a team challenge, you’ll build resilience and find strength in nature and each other.
Each participating country will share their unique take on mental health, including how they approach it within their own cultures. Through outdoor discussions and activities, you’ll learn new ways to tackle mental health challenges, giving you fresh tools and perspectives you can bring back home. It’s all about growth, support, navigating the ups and downs together, and making memories in the great outdoors!
