Youth exchanges allow groups of young people from different countries to meet, live together and work on shared projects for short periods.
Youth exchanges take place outside the school environment. On a youth exchange, you can expect to participate in activities such as workshops, exercises, debates, role-plays, outdoor activities and more.

Trainers of ICON use De Bono’s hat technique to enhance empathy and inclusion. By wearing a hat, you are given a role and look at problems from different perspectives.
