The Youth Exchange School programme (YES), is an inclusive and enriching learning short-mobility experience for students, equipping them with valuable skills, knowledge, and intercultural competencies while promoting the EU’s priority areas and fostering a sense of European identity and cooperation.

Coordinated by the NHL Stenden University of Applied Sciences (NHL Stenden), this edition is called ‘Solving Wicked Problems Through Design Based Education’.

The attendants will experience Design-Based Education (DBE): Multidisciplinary collaboration, a Design Thinking approach, an International and intercultural setting, Sustainable Education and Personal Leadership.

Students will learn that they can take ownership of and contribute to a changing world by becoming Future Thinkers and Future Doers.

In one week, they will develop their communication and problem-solving skills through a cyclical design approach in small multidisciplinary project groups, and experience a multitude of Future Design tools that facilitate this process.
