From May 12 to 20, our team from Ukraine took part in the Erasmus+ youth exchange “Beyond the Game” in sunny Ureki, Sakartvelo 
8 days. 6 countries — Ukraine 
, Lithuania 
, Poland 
, Armenia 
, Czechia 
and Georgia . Dozens of new acquaintances. And volleyball and table tennis as a language without borders 
But “Beyond the Game” isn’t just about sports. It’s about what happens after the final whistle:
frank discussions about equality and inclusion
teamwork with young people from different cultures
finding common ground in our very different stories
We shared our experiences—and our country’s experiences during the war became an important part of this dialogue. People listened to us. They understood us. And that’s already a great deal 
We’re returning home with new skills, a bunch of photos, and most importantly—with the realization that young people can build bridges even where there are walls
