Conference – Symposium – Forum

The Europe Goes Local strategic cooperation will hold its 4th European event on 17-19 May 2022 in Cluj-Napoca. The event brings together stakeholders from municipal level youth work.
The European context of the event
The European Youth Work Agenda refers to Europe Goes Local as an instrument to create bridges between the local and European level. The 4th European EGL Event is a forum where stakeholders of municipal level youth work can meet, exchange and express views, create joint activities and learn from each other.
2022 is the European Year of Youth with the aim of giving “young people more and better opportunities for the future”. Developing local youth work strongly contributes to addressing the needs of young people. The participants of the conference will discuss the key elements of a youth-friendly ecosystem and plan joint actions to strengthen local communities with the contribution of youth work.
The role of the conference in the life cycle of the project
Europe Goes Local has renewed its aims and objectives for the 2021-2027 programme period.

This platform is meant to be a space for learning and cooperation for the community of youth work providers and it will be supported by activities as well as communication tools. The project is working on a new website, on the rebranding of the visual identity and an intranet application which will be offered to local stakeholders to communicate and cooperate.
