“Second chance is the first youth exchange I have participated in and it was definitely one to remember. We spent 7 days learning about materials, where they come from and how to reuse and up-cycle them. I appreciated that we had many practical workshops through which I definitely learned some new and interesting skills.”

From February 22nd to February 26th, seven organizations from five different countries gatherd in Ljubljana for a transnational meeting of the Second Chance project. The meeting served as a platform to discuss forthcoming activities aimed at empowering youth and fostering innovation across borders.

Today, the partners of the project gathered for a consortium meeting filled with enthusiasm and purpose. During this collaborative session, we had discussions about the forthcoming training sessions. These sessions promise to be transformative opportunities for young individuals who possess a love for crafting, sewing, and innovative business ideas.
