For four days, young people from Dortmund and Amiens worked, debated and exchanged ideas together in Brussels. The trip was a living expression of the twin-city partnership between Dortmund and Amiens and took place on the 35th anniversary of the Weimar Triangle.
What we did
- A visit to the European Parliament and conversations about how decisions are made in Europe
- Workshops on democracy, participation and what young people expect from Europe
- City exploration, shared meals and a final evening nobody wanted to end early
Political education lives on real exchange. That is exactly what we experienced in Brussels.
Thank you to the Youth Welfare Office of the City of Dortmund for funding this encounter, to the AG §78 International Youth Work for their support and to KESS Westerfilde for the cooperation.
