During this Exchange, we are going to reveal and discover the hidden meanings of the Harry Potter Universe. Through unique non-formal activities, group work, discussion and movement, this exchange is to support you on your inner journey.
The programme consists of 7 full working days. It will start in the evening on the 3rd of December and ends on the morning of the 11th.
All of your expenses are covered by the Erasmus+ Programme. However there is a participation fee of 30€. If that amount is hardly feasible for you, contact the organizers. Food and accommodation will be provided by the organisers. Your travel expenses will be reimbursed based on the Erasmus+ distance calculator via bank transfer, after the project.

Application Form (deadline 24 Oct.): shorturl.at/huILM
In the application process, the main factor is the application form. However, the personality test will play its role as well in the selection of participants. Remember that there are no good or bad answers, just be as truthful to yourself as possible. If you’re selected, you will receive the Hogwarts Letter with every necessary practical information you need.
Please note the this is not a usual Youth Exchange, but a deep mental and emotional journey into yourself. We will be separated next to a small village and there will be no time provided to discover Budapest during the project. Also, this is an alcohol-free project, so please plan accordingly.
