In this project, there are 6 partners,5 NGYOs and a SME from different European countries. The main priority of these partners is to develop communication strategy of youth NGOs. They all collaborate well with each other through training courses, seminars, informal meetings, national and international events.

It was also aimed to raise awareness in young people, increase their sense of EU-citizenship, improve their social skills and exchange of good practices and experiences among organisations. Among the project activities, 3 international and one multiplier event was held. A web based tool box has been created as the intellectual output. The tool box is both in Esperanto and English.
