The Symposium aims to continue the reflection and exchange on youth policy cooperation in the region and – more specifically – to place the topic of recognition of non-formal learning/education and of youth work on the political agenda of the countries of the South East Europe region.

The event is organized by the European Commission and Council of Europe through their partnership in the field of youth (EU-CoE youth partnership) and in cooperation with the Ministry of Tourism, Culture, Youth and Sport of Albania; SALTO SEE RC, SALTO Training and Cooperation RC, SALTO EECA and Interkulturelles Zentrum – Austrian National Agency for the YiA Programme.

• the earlier EU-CoE youth partnership / SALTO SEE Resource Centre activities in the region of South East Europe (Trogir, Croatia 2007; Belgrade, Serbia 2008; Brdo, Slovenia 2009),
• former training courses on the topic of recognition of non-formal learning/education organised by SALTO SEE and SALTO T&C (in particular: long-term training course ‘Let’s Train: Recognition of Non-Formal Learning in Youth Work’ 2010/11)
