From Observing Innovation to Inspiring Action: Our Transnational Meeting in Sofia! 💡

We recently wrapped up a productive 3-day transnational meeting in Sofia, Bulgaria as part of the Minimal & Functional KA210 E+ project (with our amazing partners @vereinmuse and @eycb.info ). 🤝

Our goal?

To learn from the incredible work of other organizations, youth groups, and individuals who are making a difference in youth development. The meeting aimed to observe innovative practices of different organizations, youth groups, and people working with youth. 

During the 3 days of activities, we held several meetings that will mark our future work positively.

✅️ On January 17, we were guests of sCool Media. They presented their work to us and showed us what is important when creating media content. See their fact-checked content on sCool Media's website.

✅️ On January 18, the day started with @k.pashov (Kristiyan Pashov) and his workshop on speech creation and public speaking. In the afternoon, two of the innovative inventions of our colleagues from @walktogether_bulgaria were introduced to us - a Board game aimed at improving the financial literacy of young people and an innovative Incubator for little chickens. Learn more about these exciting initiatives on Association WalkTogether's website.

✅️ On January 19, we met Dr. Vihren Mitev. He told us about the work of his organization - ManEco Foundation (@manecofoundation), showed us what Climate Fresk is, and then we talked about the importance of protecting the environment. Find more on ManEco's website.

What is next?

We ended our transnational meeting with brainstorming and new ideas for workshops for the upcoming main activity in Linz, Austria in April. Before that, we are going to observe innovative practices in Brno, Czech Republic. See you soon, Czech Republic! 🇨🇿
