Who
we are?

We're youth workers, educators and active citizens from Ungheni. We started in 2015 running electoral campaigns for young first-time voters. In 2025 we formally registered as an NGO.

Through EUreka, we now work in 10 regions across Moldova. Through SkillBoost 2.0, young people learn to write CVs, practice job interviews and visit real workplaces in Ungheni.

Education

Skills camps, Debate50 argumentation sessions, CV writing workshops, career guidance using COGNITROM testing.

Civic Engagement

Electoral education, face-to-face debates with political parties, voter mobilization, European values via EUreka. Plus a Mobile Center that goes to youth, not the other way around.
