Eurogems è un'organizzazione di cooperazione internazionale no-profit nata nel 2005 con l'idea di dare la possibilità alla società civile in genere di partecipare ai Programmi Comunitari al fine di ridurre le distanze e rivalità culturali, valorizzando le tradizioni, competenze, particolarità di ogni singolo individuo. Nelle nostre attività ci avvaliamo della collaborazione di formatori, educatori ed insegnanti, e cooperiamo con molte scuole, istituzioni pubbliche ed università. Collaboriamo ed organizziamo attività dove la società civile possa incontrarsi, conoscersi e socializzare, favorendo attività integrate all’insegnamento, consulenze, attività educative, attività mirate all’integrazione attiva di ragazzi stranieri di altre culture e di ragazzi con abilità differenti. Organizziamo e coordiniamo servizi e strutture che abbiano il compito di innalzare la qualità della vita, delle relazioni interpersonali, del tempo libero, del turismo sociale, e di promuovere in ogni campo pubblico e privato interventi formativi e pedagogici. In ambito internazionale siamo membri di importanti istituzioni ed organizzazioni tra le quali il Consiglio di Europa EFY ed Anna Lindh Foundation, fondazione che coinvolge 27 stati Europei più 12 del bacino del mediterraneo AREA EUROMED, nonché del Programma Duke of Award, fondazione che lavora in tutto il mondo.
