<\/p>The Partnership Building Activity on SYNERGIES was an Erasmus+ training course that ATA was doing between November 4 and 10 as part of our Youth Accreditation and it hosted 23 youth workers, project managers and staff members of 15 different youth organizations from across 11 European countries.<\/p>
On the first day we discovered who everyone is, the mobility program, objectives, our community, and our NGOs, all this through non-formal and teambuilding activities. The day ended with an intercultural snack night.<\/p>
The second day made sure that all participants understand the (common) past of the 15 associations present in the meeting and the concept of synergies on local and international level. For this, we made 4 different sessions where everyone could share their own experiences and best practices in different interactive formats.<\/p>
On day three, the 23 youth workers and NGO staff mainly concentrated on sharing best practices and experiences connected to communication (with target groups, stakeholders, and partners), cooperation and project management. We did this both with non-formal activities and hands-on presentations or debates. It was a day full of learning.<\/p>
Day four started with 3 study visits to regional partners of ATA. First, we went to the Kil\u00e1t\u00f3 Association which does sustainability actions for the community and to the Three Doves Association, which works for the integration of the disabled, both in Porumbeni Mici. Before lunch, we went to the Berde Mozes Unitarian Highschool, our long standing partner in Cristuru Secuiesc. In the afternoon, we had the chance to see best practices from our partners from Europe and had a debate on participation fees in Erasmus+<\/p>
Day five was extremely busy. First, all the 7 partners with Erasmus+ Youth Accreditation and ESC Quality Label have presented their upcoming projects for 2023 and 2024 and put these of the timeline in the wall. There were 20 Youth Exchanges, 15 Training Courses, 22 Long ESC and 17 Teams ESC projects presented. After this, in the afternoon, the group has gone to Sighisoara Medieval Fortress for a cultural break.<\/p>
On the sixth day, we made 13 open space sessions, and in each, 3 parallel sessions were held to understand each mobility, define objectives, activities and target groups, see who can be sending organization in the 72 Erasmus+ and European Solidarity Corps mobilities we will do in 2023 and 2024.![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.ata-ro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/PBA-Synergies-vege-EN-HU-k.info-3-1024x770.jpg\")

On the last day we made our final commitments towards the partnerships that have been built, we made a short visit to the local museum. In the afternoon the youth workers reflected on their learning, wrote about their achievements and we evaluated the meeting. For closing, we had a Youthpass ceremony.<\/p>
The fruits of this PBA will be visible in our town and abroad with the youth exchanges training courses and volunteering projects we and our partners will do together in the next 2 years.![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.ata-ro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/EN-Funded-by-the-EU-PANTONE-1024x215.jpg\")
