YOUTH ENCOUNTER ON SUSTAINABILITY (YES)
YOUTH ENCOUNTER ON SUSTAINABILITY (YES) je pokret koji je započet u Svajcarskoj zahvaljujući velikoj ljubavi prema planeti Zemlji i želji da se mladi intelektualci pripreme da preuznu lidersku ulogu u postizanju održivog razvoja. Studetnti i mladi intelektualci koje tema održivog razvoja interesuje i imaju želju da o njoj nauče u interkulturalnom okruženju i priključe se stotinama mladih koji su do sada već prošli obuku nazvanu YOUTH ENCOUNTER ON SUSTAINABILITY (YES) pozivamo da se prijave na ovogodišnje kurseve.
Kao neko ko je prošao ovaj kurs 2005 godine u Svajcarskoj i imao priliku da pomogne u realizaciji kursa 2006 godine u Slovackoj, iskreno preporučujem ovo nezaboravno iskustvo koje mi i dan dana vraća osmeh na lice i pozitivnu energiju kada god se setim vremena provedenom u Svajcarskoj i Slovackoj.
