Evaluations from participants
Stephani Anastasiou
As someone who's been creating art for years, joining this project taught me a lot. Even with my experience, I found new techniques that boosted my creativity. Working with others was great—I got to share ideas, learn from different viewpoints, and improve how I collaborate. It wasn't just about refining my skills, but also understanding the artistic journey better. Being part of a team was inspiring, and seeing everyone's unique styles was a real highlight.
Nikolas Misetzis
Despite my lack of experience with regards to arts & crafts, I felt very welcomed and part of the team. I learned many things about crafting and photography techniques, as well as the preparation of a workshop of our own, for our visit at a local high school. Overall, I can confirm that this was a unique experience, that filled me with joy and knowledge.
Stella Savva
An amazing project. The experience I gained from the Erasmus+ programme, VARCOU, in Pissouri, Limassol, Cyprus was amazing. I met new people, tasted different dishes, and made new friends. I learned a lot about photography as tool in non formal education for inclusion in different countries. I learned many things about the way of life in different countries, I learned new words in different languages, expanding my linguistic competence; and my English speaking skills was enhanced. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience and I would definitely like it to live it again!

Participating in the "Voice of ARt and COmmUnity. (VARCOU)" Professional Development Activity in Pissouri, Limassol, Cyprus has been an incredibly enlightening journey. Engaging in workshops, discussions, and practical activities about participation photography has broadened my perspective on the theme. Interacting with international peers and collaborating on ideas has strengthened my cross-cultural communication skills and expanded my network. I'm excited to expand the knowledge and insights gained during this project to my local community, and I am determined to contribute to the growth of social enterprises that can make a lasting impact.
