Values in Action – Building Partnerships for Human Rights, Democracy and European Values
We are excited to announce that this year's Annual International Partner Meeting, taking place from 7–10 December 2026 at the European Youth Education Centre Magdeburg (EJBM), is now also open to new organisations interested in international cooperation!
Under the theme “Values in Action – Building Partnerships for Human Rights, Democracy and European Values”, we invite both our established partners and new potential partner organisations, educational institutions and civil society actors from across Europe to come together, exchange ideas and explore opportunities for future collaboration within the Erasmus+ programme.
The meeting offers a space to strengthen existing partnerships, build new connections and share experiences and good practices in international youth work. Together, we will reflect on previous collaborations, discuss current challenges and develop shared quality standards for planning, implementing and evaluating international youth projects.
Looking ahead to 2027, participants will also have the opportunity to identify common priorities, develop new project ideas and plan future youth exchanges and training activities. Our goal is to create lasting partnerships that promote human rights education, democratic participation and European values through international youth work.
