What happens when six countries, thirty-six young people, and the power of movement come together?
We’re excited to officially kick off EduKiz, an Erasmus+ initiative hosted by VšĮ "Apglėbk pasaulį" right here in Kaunas!
Instead of relying on standard seminars, EduKiz utilizes movement therapy, body expression, and Kizomba basics to help youth build real emotional resilience, overcome post-pandemic anxiety, and connect beyond language barriers.
Here’s what you need to know:
The Team Behind It:
We are collaborating with five fantastic partner organizations:
• Lithuania: VšĮ "Apglėbk pasaulį" (Host)
• Spain: ASOCIACIÓN KIZDANCE
• France: MITRA FRANCE
• Poland: Stowarzyszenie "AKTYWNI KREATYWNI"
• Greece: YOUthNited
• Estonia: Koolitus- ja arenguühing
Mark Your Calendar:
• Sept 2 - 5 | Advance Planning Visit: Leaders will meet in Prienai to adapt workshops and ensure everything is fully accessible and safe.
• Sept 20 - 29 | The Main Exchange: Eight days of intensive movement sessions, intercultural workshops, and intergenerational community activities.
The Real-World Impact:
Over half of our participants are young people facing social, economic, or geographic challenges. In addition to the personal growth during the project, we will publish an open-access EduKiz Resource Pack for youth workers across Europe. Our teams will also conduct six local workshops back home to share the skills with over one hundred more peers.
