The European Union is inviting young people from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Serbia to participate in a youth exchange programme focused on peace education. The regional training is in cooperation with the Balkans Let’s Get Up! organisation and Udhëtim i Lirë – Liberi di Viaggare, and with the support of the Regional Youth Cooperation Office (RYCO) and Youth for Peace within the P.A.C.E (Peace and Conflict Education) project.
The youth exchange will be held from 10 to 15 August in Durrës, Albania. A total of 21 participants will be selected for the exchange, including seven young people from Albania, seven from Bosnia and Herzegovina, and seven from Serbia. All costs of transportation, accommodation, food and materials are covered by the organisers.
