The programme runs from 7 March – 12 May, there will be self-managed individual tasks in between the live moments when participation is mandatory.

The general aim of Power to You(th) is to boost and expand the capacity of youth workers and youth leaders to support the empowerment of young people with fewer opportunities and to increase inclusive youth-led participation within their organisation on a long term basis by implementing the new Erasmus+ Youth/European Solidarity Corps projects.
