GEN Z MEDIA LAB Podcasting & Video Production for Youth Digital Creativity

CERTA Association (Romania) has developed a comprehensive and innovative project concept for a KA220-YOU - Cooperation Partnerships in Youth (2026 deadline). We are now building a strong European consortium to implement this initiative across four countries.
As the main authors and designers of the project, we are seeking one additional partner from Germany or Spain who may also take on the role of Applicant/Coordinator, only to maximise the project’s chances of approval, given the high competition in our national agency.
