Project Summary
SYNERGY – Youth-Led Urban Sustainability Initiative is a European youth project co-funded by the European Union bringing together young people and youth workers from Greece, Turkey, Latvia, North Macedonia, Bulgaria and Romania. The project takes place in Thessaloniki, Greece and focuses on empowering young people to actively contribute to sustainable, inclusive and resilient communities.
