YMCA Europe´s Secretary General Juan Simoes Iglesias was invited to take part and he joined the other participants from European National Movements: Viktor Serbulov and a delegation from YMCA Ukraine, Alexei Koystakov from Russia and Tabea Kölbel from Germany.
The Conference included workshops, keynote speeches and best practices sharing not only led by the three organizing YMCAs but also with the strong involvement of all YMCAs represented.
For YMCA Europe and the European YMCAs present, it was an excellent opportunity to reaffirm the key partnerships with the national and local YMCAs in the USA and Canada. We are thankful for this fruitful co-operation and for the opportunity of taking part in this new International Conference.
