The last transnational meeting of the STEP1 project took place between 16-17 November in Poland. The main objective of the meeting was to discuss the implemented activities, as well as the final results of the project. The meeting was attended by representatives of the Portuguese associations, Spanish and Greek partner organisations, our own team and the Polish partner, who also hosted us this time. 

The primary objective of the project was to increase the number of local volunteers and to involve and prepare young people for volunteering. For our part, we can say that during the 24-month term, we involved 242 young people in the project at local level, organized 4 events dedicated to the project, which was about promoting local volunteering opportunities, enriched our team with 7 local volunteers, thanks to which we currently count 28 local volunteers. The last local event of the project will be organised at the end of this month, on this event we would like to present the results of the project to the local community.  

At the same time, near the presentations, we had the opportunity to take part in a snowy trip in, the majority of the team visited the Samotnia peak, the weather was foggy, but the fresh mountain air was refreshing for us.  

The project was supported by the Portuguese National Agency under Erasmus+ Youth in Action. Associations involved in the project: Just Do It (Poland), You in Europe (Greece), Imagina (Spain), Casa da Juventude de Amarante (Portugal), initiated by Psíentifica (Portugal).
