Profile of participants: Youth workers, Youth leaders, Youth project managers, Volunteering mentors, Individuals, Civil society groups, Environment and Development Education Organisations
Themes and goals of the event: Aim of the international seminar: to demystify the concept of solidarity and create a common understanding
Expected results: This seminar will explore what is meant by solidarity, what undermines it in its various forms, and what facilitates it. Through the engagement of experts in the field, it will also explore the operation of solidarity in practice.
The seminar will make connection between the meaning of ‘solidarity’ with the new European Solidarity Corps Programme.
