NATIONAL EURODESK HIGHLIGHT

 

Eurodesk Romania at the Erasmus Generation Meeting (EGM)

 

Eurodesk was present at the 2nd edition of the Erasmus Generation Meeting (EGM), which took place on 6-9 April, in Bucharest, Romania. The event was organised by the Erasmus Student Network, with the support of the European Parliament and the Romanian Erasmus+ National Agency. More than 900 participants from all over Europe (Erasmus+ alumni, young people and relevant stakeholders) gathered to discuss the importance of international skills for more engaged societies.

The Eurodesk team hosted two dedicated sessions, presenting our tools for promoting youth opportunities and organising an interactive workshop on social media engagement. We were happy to present the Eurodesk Social Media Guidebook and share best practices on youth engagement from our network, leaving participants at the end with a creative challenge of creating their own Instagram Reels promoting the importance of mobility.
