NETWORKING SEMINAR: STRENGTHENING SYNERGIES FOR YOUTH

Accredited mobility project: 2025-1-MK01-KA151-YOU-000298051

Coalition of youth organizations SEGA invite participants to a partnership-strengthening seminar designed to build long-term action plans for future Erasmus+ projects. The seminar is envisioned as a vibrant and inspiring platform for youth workers and project managers from your organizations to meet, get to know each other, share their stories and fields of work, and most importantly – to identify common goals, areas of synergy, and current challenges (especially in the areas of: youth work, wellbeing, education, entering the labour market, new trends like AI & technology, and the European Youth Goals) that require our joint attention.

It will be a wonderful opportunity to strengthen existing partnerships, build a strategic vision for future cooperation, and of course, find new reliable partners for upcoming Erasmus+ applications and initiatives.
