The EU4YOUTH2ACT project has become a hub of partnerships and collaborations, with a strong presence in Tuscany and across wider networks.
As The Fondazione Toscana Sostenibile, a dedicated Italian partner, we have managed to connect with several other organizations, fostering new relationships that emphasize both social responsibility and active participation in the region.
One of the notable partnerships that emerged from this project is with CO.S.SAN, the Comunità Senegalese di Santa Croce, an association that has long worked to promote integration, social cohesion, and active citizenship among Senegalese migrants and their descendants. Their participation in the mobilities and local actions organized by EU4YOUTH2ACT highlights their commitment to supporting youth empowerment and intercultural dialogue. Together with the municipality of Santa Croce, Montopoli, as well as other local organizations, they are working to address socio-economic challenges and improve the opportunities available to marginalized communities.
From this experience, COSSAN came up with the idea of creating a project on the theme of integration in the European Union, concerning young people who arrive from conflict-affected areas such as Ukraine. The project is in the conceptual stage, but we hope this will be another opportunity to strengthen partnerships in the region and internationally.
This partnership extends beyond just local initiatives, creating a powerful cooperation network. The EU4YOUTH2ACT project is helping catalyze collaborations with various institutions like Fuochi Di Prometeo Association, Rock City, the University of Florence, Lupi Santa Croce, and Mestieri di Toscana, among others. We also work with organizations that share the common goal of supporting youth participation in civic life, promoting vocational training, and fostering social inclusion.
By engaging in this multi-stakeholder collaboration, the EU4YOUTH2ACT project is laying the groundwork for future partnerships. Each partner, from educational institutions to community organizations, contributes to strengthening the fabric of European society through local and international actions. This project has proven itself as a vital platform for building long-lasting partnerships that aim to empower young people and create an inclusive and dynamic society.
