It is important for Sighet to develop activities by youth mobility, to show the world how three different ethnic groups live together in harmony and to motivate young people to participate actively in society . Thus we have identified a partner in Hungary, through a long term partnership is willing to contribute to the promotion of youth and activities in the region. Through the project objectives we intend to increase the level of knowledge among the 28 young people about other cultures and countries, to provide a common framework for communication and learning interaction for them to increase motivation among these young people to participate actively in the life community and to develop some skills and abilities.
