There are more opportunities for professional development for youth workers and organisations to gain experience in international cooperation and strengthen their capacities.

KA2 -COOPERATION AMONG ORGANISATIONS AND INSTITUTIONS
Though KA2 -Cooperation among organisations and institutions, organisations have the opportunity to increase the quality and relevance of their activities, to develop and reinforce their networks of partners, to increase their capacity to operate jointly at the transnational level, boosting internationalisation of their activities and through exchanging or developing new practices and methods as well as sharing and confronting ideas.

EUROPEAN YOUTH TOGETHER
European Youth Together projects aim to create networks promoting regional partnerships, to be run closely with young people from across Europe (EU Member States and third countries associated with the programme). The networks should organise exchanges, promote training (for instance for youth leaders) and allow young people to set up joint projects, all of which can be done through physical and online activities.
