The Knowledge Exchange project aims to increase the competences of professionals coming from institutions from the Lublin region working with young adults who are at risk of social exclusion, as well as families experiencing difficulties providing care and education.

Project objectives:

– Develop methodology for working with young people

They will be able to visit and meet the staff of other institutions working with youth in Cyprus and learn the methods of working with young people.
