Impactful nonformal experiences, dedicated to your development and well-being.
What can you find at our lab?
EU projects
We write and implement projects with European funding. We offer you opportunities to travel, learn and collaborate with young people, youth workers and organisations from all over Europe.
Personal and professional development
We organise and facilitate interactive sessions where you can develop real life skills such as communication, leadership and critical thinking.
Impactful non-formal experiences
We create impactful learning experiences using non-formal methods. Theory is good too, but we like to experiment and then draw the conclusions.
Resources for working with young people
We are developing ways to support other youth workers, educators, and facilitators to tailor the experiences they create according to their learners’ growth needs.
Community of young people passionate about learning
Community is where we make friends, share ideas and support each other. When we grow and learn together, we seem to do it with a different spirit.
Support in your growth process
No matter the age, growth and change are constant in our lives. We support you to express yourself freely, discover your needs and follow your passions. We empower you to put your ideas into practice and explore any area that interests you.
Who do we work for?
Youth (13-35 years old)
We believe that young people are the engine of change.
Through our projects and programmes, we invest in you, the leaders of tomorrow, to make the world around us a little better.
Youth workers
Youth workers are the bridge between young people and development opportunities.
Together, we can amplify impact and bring real change to the community.
Educators
Learning needs are constantly changing
We support teachers, trainers and facilitators to discover new ways of teaching and facilitating, to respond to the curiosity and desire for knowledge of their students and learners.
Adults
Education has no age.
Our programmes are open to people of all ages, giving adults the chance to reinvent themselves, improve their knowledge and skills, and discover new horizons.
Did you know we have a Discord server with young people from all over Europe?
The European Lead by Nature Network (ELNN) is a European network of 20 organisations in 13 countries, that have young people at the core of their activity. We started in November 2022 in Bran when, following a training course, we realised that together we can work better and our young people can gain more.
A few months later, we launched the ELNN Youth Hub on Discord. The server is a space where you can connect with young leaders like you from all over Europe and beyond.
