Time to Move, the flagship campaign of Eurodesk, informs young people about studying, volunteering and internship opportunities abroad and helps them find the most suitable programmes for their personal development. During the month of October, the campaign brings together hundreds of youth organisations around Europe to organise over 1500 events in over 30 countries.
Among the activities, interested young people can find some casual sessions like lectures in schools, cultural sessions, or information stands at fairs, but also some not so traditional information events such as concerts, mountain-hiking, biking, board game evenings or slam poetry nights.
The campaign specifically targets young people from non-city environments, who do not usually have access to youth information and those not in education, training or employment (NEETs) who would highly benefit from a mobility experience abroad. Time to Move aims to make everyone aware of the availability of local Eurodesk information points as guidance spots, if they feel the need to discuss their plans and how international mobility projects can contribute to their futures.
The campaign website, timetomove.eurodesk.eu, offers young people comprehensive information about the over 1500 Time to Move events via an interactive map. It is available in multiple languages, giving users quick, easy access to the campaign’s activities.
Eurodesk organises digital creative competitions where young people, aged 13-30, are invited to compete with their photos or designs and have the chance to win valuable prizes. Some of the winners’ creations are used for the visuals of the following campaign, giving visibility to youth creativity.
