Our projects
The YVS portfolio brings together heritage projects, civic engagement, community development, cultural interpretation and training, built around people and places.
Projects that leave something behind
We do not develop projects as isolated activities, but as processes that create connections, resources and contexts of participation. Each YVS initiative starts from a need, a territory, a community or a cultural resource and seeks to produce a result that remains useful even after the activities have ended.
We work mainly in Bucharest and Dobrogea, through projects that connect cultural and natural heritage, local memory, civic education, public participation and community development. The portfolio below provides access to our projects, with information about the context, activities, results and materials developed.
