The Mediterranean Youth Academy aims to empower and equip young people from the Euro-Mediterranean region through non-formal education, providing them with the necessary skills to address shared regional challenges. The initiative seeks to raise youth awareness and enable them to actively participate in decision-making and policy processes. The fifth edition builds on previous successful editions held in several countries and offers an intensive training program focused on three main thematic areas: climate action and accountability, gender equality and empowerment, and artificial intelligence and the future of youth work.
