A short, hands-on training - not a conference where you sit and listen.

Each edition runs for two to three days and brings together young people from different countries. Depending on the edition, you can expect:

• Storytelling and content creation - how to turn what matters to you into something people actually watch, read and share

• Social media that works - building an audience, not just posting into the void

• Campaigning and advocacy - from a good idea to a change someone in power notices

• Meeting people who do this for a living - journalists, campaigners, content creators, policymakers

• Working with young people from across Europe - which is usually the part people remember longest

Every edition is hosted in a different European country, so the themes, the setting and the group change each time.

HOW THE POOL WORKS

This is the part worth reading carefully, because it is different from a normal open call.

You are not applying for one specific activity. You are applying to join a pool.

1. You apply once. Tell us who you are, what interests you and roughly when you tend to be available.

2. We announce each activity to the pool. When an edition is confirmed - country, dates, theme - everyone in the pool hears about it.

3. You say whether that one works for you. No obligation. If the dates clash with exams, work or harvest, you simply say so and wait for the next one.

4. We confirm the group for that edition and send you everything you need.

One application, several chances to take part. You are never locked into anything by joining.
