‘On the Move’ is our exciting global project for 2016–2018 which tackles many issues around mobility, all of which are relevant to young people living in a globalised world and who do not want to be stopped by borders! The project was launched with a kick off event at IFM-SEI Camp 2016 and followed up with a seminar in November on migration and refugees, and a seminar this March in Recife – Brasil, working on Visas. We’re excited to announce the next and last seminar in our project is on regional youth work, taking place in Vienna, is now open to the following partner organisations in the project:

Africa: Youth Advocates Ghana, Pionniers du Mali and Pionniers du Senegal

Latin America: Nueva Generación (Bolivia), Mirim Brasil, MILAVF (Nicaragua) and Los Cachorros (Peru)
