Fraternitas is a non-governmental organization founded way back in November 2013 in Sanok, Poland. It all started with a small informal group of young people attending youth exchanges abroad organized by the local university. As they wanted to take this adventure to the next level, they decided to establish an NGO and open up these opportunities for others. In particular, they were driven by a will to take action and promote shared values.

 

As Fraternitas, our main goal is to promote and implement youth exchange projects within the Erasmus+ programme. We want to give people with fewer opportunities a chance to learn and meet their peers from different countries and different communities so that they can grow from these experiences.

 

Our mission is working on behalf of international cooperation between local communities and different social groups in the aspect of youth exchange - promoting active participation in social life among local communities - organizing cultural, informative, educational and sports events to promote local and international partnership-building activities.

 

We have taken part in a number of youth exchanges and training courses and in 2015, 2016 and 2020 successfully implemented our own projects. We are also a part of the Erasmus for Young Entrepreneurs programme.
