The last deadline of Youth in Action Programme was one of the most provocative for us because we submitted 3 international projects, for which we have worked with 20 partners from 10 different countries. All of the projects are youth exchanges that will take place during the summer and autumn. If you want to know more about them, you can find below the resumes.  

Other good news are that we have at least other 4 projects in preparation for the next deadline (1 May) and we will participate in more than 15 international projects as partners. 2013 will be definitely a full year for ASIRYS, so if you are interested to get involved, this is the perfect moment!
