Background: The idea of a game around the countries of the EuroMed partnership arised from the experience of the SALTO-YOUTH EuroMed Resource Centre in the field of training and the need analysis of what is still missing in this context.
Under the Directorate-General for Education and Culture and in close cooperation with the EuropeAid Cooperation Office (AIDCO) and the Directorate- General for External Relations, the implementation of the Euro-Med Youth programme is regarded as a main priority which also falls under other priorities featuring in the YOUTH programme, such as the fightagainst racism, discrimination and xenophobia, a facilitated access to theProgramme for young people with less opportunities, dialogue with otherworld cultures and the promotion of a greater mutual understanding between European countries and the rest of the world. In addition, a training strategy for Euro-Mediterranean partners has been developed by the SALTO-YOUTH EuroMed Resource Centre.
