Description
Cooperation Partnerships aim at:
• increasing quality in the work, activities and practices of organisations and institutions involved, opening up to new actors, not naturally included within one sector;
• building capacity of organisations to work transnationally and across sectors;
• addressing common needs and priorities in the fields of education, training, youth and sport;
• enabling transformation and change (at individual, organisational or sectoral level), leading to improvements and new approaches, in proportion to the context of each organisation.
