Empowering youth.
Inspiring change.
Our Mission
ARCI Circolo Territoriale Chieti APS is a non-profit organization established in 2002 and dedicated to promoting social inclusion, active citizenship and sustainable development through non-formal education, creativity and international mobility.
We believe in the power of collective learning, intercultural dialogue and grassroots participation to empower young people and strengthen local communities.
Our mission is to support youth empowerment by offering opportunities for expression, training and collaboration, especially for those coming from disadvantaged conditions and/or rural areas.
Since 2002, we develop and coordinate International youth mobility projects (Youth, Youth in Action, Erasmus+, European Youth Foundation) across various European countries, creating meaningful exchanges, learning paths and social impact in all the involved communities.
Our initiatives include training courses, youth exchanges, study visits, seminars and community-based projects that use tools like artistic expression, environmental education and non formal education to inspire action and connection.
From August 2021 ARCI Circolo Territoriale Chieti APS is an Erasmus+ Youth accredited organisation and the following banner is constantly updated with our latest project development related to our accreditation.
