JEF Belgium Training Days 2019 in Leuven!

You know the drill: every year, we invade a city in Belgium for a weekend-long Training Days event. This year, we were in lovely Leuven!

The programme focused on empowering young people to shape the future of youth civil society.
Quite some time was also dedicated to a topic dear to our heart – Federalism – so that participants could build their knowledge and own narrative about it!

Our Code of Conduct applied during the whole event.

You can download all relevant information about the event in our Infokit here.
