“Keep building bridges, keep the discussion going and keep working to create the future you want for yourselves” the words of Deputy US Ambassador, Eric Meyer at the opening of the first outdoor festival in Valandovo, on the 18th of September. Youth Alliance Krusevo and SEE in Action organized an all-day festival enhancing the activities of Cooperation for a Common Future and were delighted to be a part of this creative and fun project, aiming to bring young people from our two countries together! Many thanks to the team of Save your Hoodfor their guidance and engagement all day long and last but not least to Balkans Beyond Borders who inspired a fruitful conversation through a cinematic experience. Once again we were reminded of the powerful messages expressed by the younger generations, and how crucial it is to think of unity in uncertain times.
