Partnership-building Activity: Make the Move for Green Inclusion III
22-27 October 2024 | Novi Sad, Serbia
PBA is organised to find good reliable partners for youth exchanges with a focus on inclusion and “green” and to understand the needs for a YE of good quality. For this time, youth workers and young people from same structures will come together.
Over the past years, many youth exchange projects have been developed and run between organisations from different countries of geographical Europe, born in the previous editions of this PBA. An exciting and challenging intercultural encounter! In order to strengthen the partnerships and especially the quality of these projects, this partnership building activity, for the first time, will gather youth workers with 1 or 2 young people from the groups they are working with and will aim to provide the needed frame, support and training elements for the participants who intend to organise such an activity in the near future. Besides creating the opportunity to create strong partnerships, we also wish to offer a real participative and intercultural experience, as an inspirational example for future youth exchange implementations.
Therefore, this Partnership Building Activity (PBA) “MAKE THE MOVE for Green Inclusion III” will take place for the 8th time in Serbia. We will also try to create some interaction with the local youth sector, which adds a dimension of intercultural experience for the participants. The priority topics will be environment and sustainable development and inclusion, and the possible links and conciliation between these two.
