On March 21st and 22nd, representatives of partner organizations gathered in Dubrovnik for a meeting within the framework of the NURTURE Project. The discussions focused on the next steps in project implementation, the continuation of activities, and the realization of ongoing apprenticeship models.
This meeting provided an opportunity to present the progress made so far and strategize on ways to enhance the project’s impact on youth employment and skills development.
Beyond the working sessions, partners had the chance to attend EXPO Dubrovnik 2025, an event that showcased innovative initiatives and opportunities for professional growth.
A significant highlight was Nedžma Salkić’s participation in a panel discussion, where she addressed crucial topics related to youth employment and engagement. Her insights put out the importance of creating more accessible and sustainable opportunities for young professionals, aligning closely with the mission of the NURTURE Project.
The meeting in Dubrovnik reinforced the commitment of all partners to ensuring the success of the project, fostering collaboration, and continuously improving apprenticeship models to equip young people with the skills necessary for the evolving job market. With renewed motivation and a clear roadmap ahead, the NURTURE Project continues to build a strong foundation for youth empowerment and professional development across Europe.
