World Café: Young Voices for the Atlantic

​On May 8, UPTEC will host an interactive World Café session, bringing together young people aged 18 to 30 to exchange ideas, share perspectives and co-create solutions, contributing to the ambition of building an Atlantic Youth Platform — a space for collaboration across borders and active participation in shaping the European Atlantic regions.

​Led by the Interreg Atlantic Area Programme, and part of a wider initiative taking place across Portugal, Spain, France and Ireland, this session will explore the results of the “Young Voices for the Atlantic” survey and gather new contributions for the final report of this public consultation.

​Expect a dynamic and informal setting designed for open dialogue, collaboration and networking — plus lunch included.
