Make the Move for Green Inclusion !

Partnership-building Activity / 26 April – 1 May 2022 | Santarem, Portugal

A new edition of the well known contact making seminar “Make the Move”, aiming at bringing together youth field actors to create parnerships and work on the design and implementation of Youth Exchanges, on the topics of environment and inclusion.

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 aims to provide the needed frame, support and training elements for the participants who intend to organise such a youth exchange in the near future. Besides creating the opportunity for participants to create strong partnerships, we also wish to offer a real intercultural experience, as an inspirational example for future youth exchange implementations. This “MAKE THE MOVE for Green Inclusion” will therefore take place for the 6th time in the very centre of Portugal. We will try to create a strong interaction with the local community, which adds a dimension of deep intercultural experience for the participants. The priority topics will be the environment and sustainable development and inclusion, and the possible links between these two.
