Workshop for Youth in Action agency directors
The three national agencies for Belgium (BIJ, JINT and das Jugenbüro) invite their colleagues and specialists from the European Commission to Belgium’s German-speaking Community. The officials meet twice a year in order to support the development and implementation of the YOUTH IN ACTION programme. In addition, they promote European co-operation in the youth field and the new EU youth strategy “Youth – Investing and Empowering”.
