ProjectLab: Promoting EU Youth Strategy
Limassol welcomed a wave of collaboration and fresh ideas as the "ProjectLab: Promoting EU Youth Strategy" got underway. Instead of formalities, the day launched directly into connection-building, with participants from around two dozen countries diving into dialogue, reflection, and shared purpose. Associations, municipalities and community centers began mapping out the challenges young people face across Europe today. Conversations flowed naturally as the group identified pressing issues in their local contexts - from youth participation and digital gaps to social inclusion and sustainability. These discussions quickly transformed into action, with participants forming collaborative groups to design meaningful responses rooted in innovation and solidarity. The focus throughout remained clear: building strong foundations for future Erasmus+ and CERV projects that align with the priorities of the EU Youth Strategy 2019-2027.
