Through expert-led, interactive online sessions, the series strengthens practical skills and cross-border connections, helping alumni stay engaged beyond individual projects and grow their impact as active citizens and community leaders 🤝✨. The modules are designed using non-formal education methods and support alumni to develop competences they can apply immediately in their local work 📚🎯.
