||REPORT|| International youth exchange - meeting of partners

„International youth exchange - meeting of partners” – under this slogan, an online meeting was held on 7 December 2021, addressed to people from Poland, Germany and Ukraine. Its main goal was to initiate tripartite partnerships between schools from these three countries, resulting in the organization of youth exchanges both in Krzyżowa and elsewhere.

Despite the online formula, the meeting was very popular and allowed the participating teachers to make new acquaintances, exchange contacts and experiences as well as ideas for future cooperation. The meeting was attended by people who know Krzyżowa well and had the opportunity to participate in our projects, as well as people who learned about the possibilities of organizing international meetings for young people thanks to this event.
