Contact making event called ProManagment brought together to Pi?czów in between 26.08-1.09 2015, 24 experienced leaders, trainers, youth workers, project managers from Albania, Bosnia& Herzcegovina, Bulgaria, Greece, Italy, Macedonia, Croatia, Portugal, Poland, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia. The main aim was to develop the quality projects for youth activities and the capability of NGOs in the field of work with youth in the frame of Erasmus + Programme. We wanted to increase cooperation between organizations from EU and Balkan countries, thus augmenting their capability of managing projects in their respective community. ProManagment also comprised opportunity to build a network among organizations active in the youth field, to exchange experiences and make new contacts. Furthermore the mix of cultures definitely facilitated the process of intercultural dialogue and understanding. The gain of such competences is useful for young people to apply in their life and work, especially in the period in which unemployment has reached incredibly high numbers in Europe. The promotion of a tool like a Youthpass, to recognize these competences was also a key point. Participants were also involved in different activities through the methodology of non-formal education such as simulations, role-playing, open space discussions, brainstorming, and ice-breakers, all that to point out importance of good practice in youth work within the frame of Erasmus+ Programme. The result of this contact making events was creation of strong cooperation and network between EU and Balkan countries in the field of youth within the Erasmus+ Programme.
