General Information
La Vibria was established in 2003 but a group of young people eager to learn about new cultures and work towards a more tolerant open and fair world. Gradually La Vibria widened its scope to include local and international projects with the help from local and European funding. Currently our team consists of young and diverse range of individuals; from local professionals and volunteers to international participants. Working from our base in Casa Baumann we organise and take part in international exchanges and local initiatives with various partners both here in Terrassa and internationally. We also host and send European Volunteers and advise local youth on the opportunities available to them within a European context. Our Other Activities: We advise youth and local organisations who want to get involved in mobility at a local and international level, helping them with the various opportunities available to them. We run fun workshops for children to introduce them to European countries, languages, institutions and cultures. These are aimed at kindergarten and primary school classes and our popular game "Europe is yours" is well known around the playgrounds of Terrassa! We also organise talks and presentations for older youth in Secondary Schools and other institutions. Here we inform them of the opportunities available to them as European Citizens and the best way to travel, work, study and volunteer within Europe. We are heavily involved in various aspects of the Youth in Action programme. Hosting and sending volunteers, participating and organising in training courses, youth exchanges and awareness campaigns on the various issues that affect youth today. Our sources come basically from municipality and European projects.
Mission and Objectives

Our main mission is to give information about mobilities to youth people from our area, and also to the organisations to grow their own projects on the European level.
