UfM Mediterranean Youth Laboratory 2025: Call for Applications

Çfarë është Laboratori Rinor Mesdhetar i UfM 2025?

Laboratori Rinor Mesdhetar i UfM 2025 is a skills-building program focused on developing projects for young people aged 18–29 from the Euro-Mediterranean region. This dynamic initiative combines online training during the summer of 2025 with a three-day in-person workshop and a final project presentation event in Tirana, Albania, from September 29 to October 2, 2025.

Participants will work closely with experts, mentors, and peers to create innovative projects addressing key issues affecting the Mediterranean region. They will focus specifically on three thematic areas of youth engagement: adaptation to climate change, transition from education to employment, and peacebuilding. The program empowers participants by equipping them with essential project management tools, leadership skills, and collaboration strategies to bring about positive change in their communities and beyond.

Up to three of the project proposals developed during this year’s edition will have the opportunity to participate in an online mentoring program offered by the Euromed Innovation Center at UEMF.

The UfM Mediterranean Youth Lab 2025 is organized by the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM), with the support of German Development Cooperation, in partnership with the Anna Lindh Foundation (ALF), the European Institute of the Mediterranean (IEMed), and the Euro-Mediterranean University of Fez (UEMF), with institutional support from the Ministry of State for Youth and Children of Albania and the National Youth Agency.

Application deadline: Sunday, June 8, 2025, at 11:59 PM (CEST). Only the first 300 applications that meet the criteria will be fully reviewed.
