In this video, three students from the University of Savoie-Mont-Blanc share their experience during the Bridges by Mentors training weekend, which blended teaching activities with time spent in nature. They reflect on the value of stepping out of their comfort zones, discovering new cultures, and improving their communication skills. Inspired by the experience, they look forward to giving back, through volunteering, supporting fellow students in finding internships abroad, and helping young people transition into the workforce.
“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” – Eleanor Roosevelt
