We’re a vibrant NGO powered by experienced professionals passionate about connecting cultures and breaking boundaries through intercultural learning and global projects.
Born from a dream in the heart of Calabria, Italy, High on Life began as a collaboration among experienced trainers, leaders, and volunteers. Fueled by a passion for intercultural learning and global outreach, our goal was simple yet profound: to spread the ‘High on Life’ spirit across Europe and beyond. Over the years, we’ve grown into a global network, connecting NGOs and stakeholders across the world. From local initiatives to international projects, we’re committed to creating a platform where youth can learn, grow, and lead.
High on Life’s story is one of growth, connection, and passion. From our early days in Calabria, we have expanded our reach globally, creating a network that transcends borders.
Location: Via Piperno 43, Mileto, Italy
