We are thrilled to announce the launch of our podcast series dedicated to The Big Thing project! This exciting new series will feature short episodes recorded by three of our participants from Belgium—Jay, Youssri, and Ditmar—offering listeners an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the activities and the inspiring individuals who bring this initiative to life.

In our first episode, we are joined by our Executive Director, Anca, and two of the project’s dynamic trainers, Viki and Daniele. Together, they delve into the heart of The Big Thing, sharing the story of how the project was conceived, what motivated our team to get involved, and the profound impact it has had on everyone working on it.

Throughout this series, you’ll gain an insider’s perspective on the significance of The Big Thing—a project funded by the European Union and developed in collaboration with Asociacion Arkhe (Spain), Zavod ODTIZ (Slovenia), and VIEWS International. The initiative aims to foster greater inclusion of people with disabilities in youth work and non-formal education across Europe, with a focus on the Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps programs.

The podcast is available on Spotify, Apple Podcast and Youtube.
