The Projects

3D-YES Project Objectives and Deliverables

3D-YES – 3D Youth Empowerment & Social Entrepreneurship is an Erasmus+ KA220-YOU Cooperation Partnership in the field of Youth. The project runs from September 2025 to July 2027 and brings together six partner organisations from Spain, Italy, Greece, Ireland and Cyprus.

The project promotes inclusion and digital innovation among vulnerable young people through social entrepreneurship, practical digital learning and 3D printing. Its main aim is to empower young people with fewer opportunities by helping them develop entrepreneurial, digital and creative skills, while also supporting the design and production of personalised 3D-printed solutions that can improve the autonomy and quality of life of people with motor disabilities.

The project is organised into five Work Packages, each contributing to the development, testing, dissemination and long-term use of the project results.
