PUSH LIMITS WITHIN YOURSELF

BUILD BRIDGES IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD

  • Get training in social change methodologies

  • Get to know GROUNDBREAKERS from different countries

  • Set up a community project in 10 days

Are you someone who likes to meet new people? Do you dare to step out of your comfort zone and explore new horizons? Do you want to get to work concretely developing your own local project with impact at the same time?

We are looking for you!

During these 10 days we'll come together with a group of people who want to create change with young people from Denmark, Spain, Greece and the Netherlands. We'll have an immersive program in which you will receive training on inclusive decision-making, dialogue, community building, co-creation, personal leadership and collaboration, presentation and facilitation.

At the same time, you and your project group will be guided to create and realise an innovative and connecting project within the 10 day program in the local context of Emmen, a town in the east of the Netherlands where our current world-challenges manifest in many ways.

Besides training and co-creating a project we'll organize a closing festival at the end of the program. At this festival the results of the project groups from across four countries will be celebrated!

Travel expenses from abroad will be covered. Dutch participants will receive a volunteer allowance of € 150,00 instead.
Costs for accommodation, food and beverages will be covered for all.

A new special international version of the 10-day GROUNDBREAKERS program will take place from 28th of April to 9th of May 2024 in Emmen in the Netherlands.
