Description
Aim of the event: 
  • Promote mobility
  • Raise Awareness
  • Make ESN Accessible
Goal of the event: 
We want to help the pink power of ExchangeAbility project shine brighter and raise the awarennes about the fact that mobility is open to everyone. Also, we used this event as a team building time for our section and bonding time with our Erasmus. We believe that every experience makes you grow and we are proud of encouraging them to learn something they might never think of on their own and proving them that they can use their Erasmus time for their personal growth.
Short description of the event: 
Our ExchangeAbility event took place in Zadar and lasted almost a week. We proposed to our Erasmus students to organise Sign Language Workshop where they could learn the basics of the Sign Langauge and use it to take part in a music video. We picked out the song called "Young as the morning, old as the sea" by Passenger, which, in our opinion, celebrates all the beauty of the world and especially countries where our Erasmus students come from. All together 13 Erasmus students and 5 ESN volunteers were featured in the video and we all learned how to sign the basics of sign language and our parts of the song.
How did your event go?: 
Our video was really well recieved in the network on local, national and international level. We were fetured on local and national television where we got the opportunity to takl about ExchangeAbility project and ESN in general, we got recognition from our National bord for the most creative project promotion and we even got th Star of the week award. The video counts more than 2,000 views on YouTube and it's something we will treasure forever.
