SEEDS Iceland took part this year once again in Útþrá 2008, an event organised by Hitt húsið, the information- and culture centre for young people of Reykjavík city.

SEEDS along few other organisations working in the youth field were represented in the fair, which aims at promoting opportunities and activities abroad for Icelancic youngsters. SEEDS introduced the different types of voluntary service and practical training that we have available and presented its Annual report for the year 2007.

Many youngsters living in Reykjavík and its surroundings attended Útþrá and inform themselves about SEEDS and other organisations.

Hitt Húsið, was founded in 1991 to satisfy the need that had arisen for leisure accommodation for young people aged between 16 and 25. Hitt Húsið has gradually developed into a center for youth culture and information, a place where young people can get advice on varied topics and assistance in putting their ideas into practice.

The main goals of Hitt Húsið are:

- Offer young people facilities and assistance with turning their ideas into reality

- Counsel and give information to young people, in cooperation with professionals and associations that specialize in that field

- Reflect what's going on in the creative art life of young people at any given moment

The house has proved to be a great place for all the activities and offers many possibilities for the on-going development of the work.

The activities in Hitt húsið are constantly evolving because trends and directions of young people lead the way.
