Day 3

At the morning we took a bus at 9.15 to Valga and we spent all the day there. In the morning we had a meeting at the Valga County Council. Valgamaa youth work head specialist at first gave a presentation about data and facts on Valga county youth work and then a small session about networking was held with local youth workers who had joined us for session. Participants were divided in mixed groups, where local representatives and participants of the project exchanged contacts. We also visited the information office. Then a presentation from the TANKLA Youth organization took place. They showed their activities, their newspaper and TV and several videos from their activities.

After having lunch at some restaurant close to the Valga Youth Center, we went to visit them. The girls working at the center showed us all the rooms where youngsters can do several activities (billiards, table tennis, special room for the kids etc.). The World CafĂ© activity started as part of the afternoon session, where participants were divided in mixed groups and were discussing about the given topics together with local youth.  The groups were switching, so that participants could give ideas and opinions and examples from own countries related to the topics.

Afterwards the Intercultural Night part II took place and the countries (Portugal, Italy, Serbia and B&H) presented their culture and traditions through videos, food &drinks and music/dance.
