TCA Description

Themes and goals:

The Europe Talks Solidarity Conference will offer a space for a dialogue around the understanding of solidarity and its connection to active participation in democratic life in Europe.

The second residential edition of Europe Talks Solidarity  will bring together experts that will deepen the understanding of the potential of solidarity in the past, present and future and its value for democracy. The event will offer an overview about solidarity in the youth field. It will present different perspectives of solidarity by providing external experts to provoke critical thinking around the understanding of solidarity and by offering a space for open dialogue. A part of the program will be dedicated to share the experience and expertise of participants. The topic of solidarity is also very closely connected with the topic of participation in democratic life, as well as social and civic engagement through formal or non-formal learning activities. Therefore, the focus of the event will be to increase awareness and better understanding of the EU's common values, such as human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality and human rights. 

It is an event organised by the Youth field in the framework of the European Solidarity Corps Programme, but the topic is cross sectoral, therefore applicants from the education and training field are welcome.

The event is coordinated by SALTO European Solidarity Corps (part of the Austrian National Agency) and hosted by NIVAM, the Slovakian National Agency for Youth and Sport. This is a three-day event, starting on 10th of September 2024 in the evening with dinner and ending on 13th of September at breakfast.
