21st International Youth Conference
The 21st IYC in North Macedonia was a unique opportunity to exchange views and ideas on current issues that concern the region, the exploration of cooperation perspectives, and the resolution of chronic pathologies through Civil Society. The aim was to achieve this by adopting a "bottom-up" approach, in response to the rigidity of state mechanisms and the frequent lack of political will from the region's leadership to take "bold" initiatives.
