Young people from Jelenia Góra high schools have returned from NOVU 2023, held in Akureyri, Iceland.
From June 26th to July 1st, 2023, students from Jelenia Góra had the opportunity to engage in discussions with colleagues from Iceland, Finland, Sweden, Denmark, and Norway. They explored topics such as the functioning of youth city councils, youth participation in social life, cooperation with local governments, and the importance of tolerance. The young participants also took part in art and community workshops, collaborating with politicians from Nordic countries. As part of this exchange, they visited their Icelandic friends' homes. They explored nearby tourist attractions, including Lake Mývatn and Godafoss Waterfall. The Icelandic youth's revisit to Jelenia Gora is planned for the third quarter of 2023.
