Healthy Empowerment of Youth-2

With Health and Cultural Cooperation as a Compass: Youth Dynamics Empowers Youth

The Association “Innovating Activities in Education, Tourism, Health and Interculturality” successfully completed the interactive workshop “Healthy Empowerment of Youth,” a dynamic initiative aimed at increasing young people’s awareness of the benefits of exercise and a healthy lifestyle.

During the workshop, which took place on July 7, 2025, in Pervolia, participants — young people aged 18-35 from various European countries — engaged in physical activities, exchanged cultural experiences, and participated in actions strengthening their European identity. At the same time, they had the opportunity to explore alternative forms of sports and healthy living practices through experiential activities.

The workshop focused on four main thematic areas: the presentation of funding opportunities offered by the European Programs “Creative Europe” and CERV, informing participants about the multiple benefits of physical activity, promoting networking and intercultural cooperation among young people from different EU countries, and strengthening their European consciousness and active participation in public life.

Through the workshop, participants:

• Learned about the benefits of exercise and a healthy lifestyle.
• Were informed about funding opportunities offered by the European Union.
• Exchanged views with people from different EU countries.
• Expanded their network, enhancing opportunities for future cooperation.

The workshop was held within the framework of the Erasmus+ program, in collaboration with the Organization of European Programs and Cultural Relations, which manages the Creative Europe Desk Cyprus and the CERV National Contact Point Cyprus.

The success of the action seals the importance of investing in youth through initiatives that combine health, education, and culture
