Network Partner Meeting

Profetional Development Activity

 Thessaloniki | Greece 

27. February 202602. March 2026 

Facing all the difficulties in the world around us, we feel grateful to work with committed partners from our international network and this time to co-organise our next PDA – Professional Development Activity, with ARSIS, in Thessaloniki – Greece. An activity under the Erasmus+ Accreditation Project 2025-2026_NA_DE04-KA151-YOU-000297567.

The goal of this activity was to bring together young people, volunteers, and people who work with young people and children in their communities. We strengthened our network and international youth work, exchanged good practices, and explored together how we can organise and host e.p.a. youth exchanges.

All participants were representatives of our partner organisations, as well as team leaders from youth groups (in Turku – Finland, Lisbon – Portugal, Timisoara – Romania, Sofia – Bulgaria, Hamburg – Germany, Thessaloniki – Greece, and Liverpool-UK), who already take part in e.p.a. youth exchanges. Our aim was to co-work, co-create opportunities, and build the conditions that allow young people, especially those with fewer opportunities, to experience two weeks of international exchange, justice, and participation, in spaces where their rights are respected.

Another important goal was to empower our partners to feel safe and confident to invite and host e.p.a. youth exchanges in their own countries and communities, while also supporting young people to take a more active role in this process.

This time, we worked on all of this together, and we are looking forward to our next international youth exchange in Greece, in Thessaloniki and Katerini, hosted by ARSIS.
