EUth Negotiators of the Future 

Regional Youth Forum: “EUth Negotiators of the Future” is a regional youth initiative supported under the Grants for Grassroot Initiatives Open Call, implemented by the Western Balkans Fund in cooperation with the European Union under the EU/WBF Joint Action Phase III.

The project aims to strengthen youth participation, regional cooperation and understanding of EU integration processes across the Western Balkans. It will bring together young people from North Macedonia, Albania and Montenegro to learn, exchange and practice how regional dialogue, negotiation and cooperation are shaped in real policy environments.

Through expert sessions, interactive learning, simulation exercises and regional exchange, participants will gain practical knowledge on EU accession, public administration, regional cooperation and negotiation processes. The Forum will also create space for young people to develop communication, teamwork and leadership skills, while building trust and networks across borders.

The project is implemented by Strategers Institute in partnership with Partners Albania for Change and Development and NVO Centar za omladinsku edukaciju, with the support of ReSPA – Regional School of Public Administration.

The initiative contributes to people-to-people cooperation in the Western Balkans by preparing young participants to better understand the EU integration process and to become more active, informed and responsible contributors to regional cooperation.
