One of the particularly valuable aspects of this General Assembly was the networking opportunity offered to participants. They had the chance to interact with relevant people in the youth field, share experiences and make connections.   

„Revitalising the youth sector in Romania” is an ambitious project that promises to bring significant changes in the lives of young people in the country. Through events such as the General Assembly, an essential platform for discussion, collaboration and action is created, all aimed at improving the quality of life of young people and developing a stronger and more proactive youth sector in Romania. 

The event is part of the project „Revitalization of the Youth Sector in Romania” through which we aim to increase the capacity, sustainability of youth foundations, as well as the development of support services for NGOs in the same region.
