March has been an intense month for our activities in Brussels, with many meetings and a lot of planning on fundraising and advocacy.

It’s that special time of the year again! The time to acknowledge and celebrate our partners and supporters for the work they do, innovative ideas they develop and commitment they have shown towards the YMCA Europe Roots pursuit of peace and justice.

On April the 8th, 2021, within the set-up of the Generation Next project YMCA Europe plans to hold an InfoForum with YMCA Georgia.

Generation Next project has switched to very active mode recently – upon launching the Call for Applications to submit proposals for Internship & Summer School projects in 2021.

The Council of Europe has been contacted by the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) concerning an exciting new project presenting the stories of young human rights educators in collaboration with Amnesty International and Soka Gakkai International.

Institutional Fundraising can look complex for a youth organisation, but it’s a very useful source of funding, and it can get quite easy to get the hang of it once we try.

“Women in leadership: achieving an equal future in a COVID-19 world”. This is the theme of 2021 International Women´s Day highlighting that women´s key role at the front lines against the COVID-19 crisis.

YMCA Europe is launching the inaugural Call for Applications and invites eligible organizations to submit proposals within Generation Next Internship and Summer School Projects to be held in 2021.

The month of February has represented a very important and busy phase in the work of the Brussels office. Read below an overview of our activities that we hope will make us even more relevant and effective than before.

Although February marked another month of reduced possibilities to move for many of us in Europe, the work of YMCA Europe continued focusing on the relevant items that you will read in the newsletter. Our key aim is to add value to our national YMCAs.
