From Label to Action

How can organisations move from holding an ESC Humanitarian Aid Quality Label to building real partnerships and successful project ideas?

This partnership-building activity brings together youth organisations, NGO staff members, and professionals interested in developing future cooperation within the framework of ESC Humanitarian Aid. The activity will focus on networking, peer exchange, project development, and sharing practical experiences related to international volunteering and humanitarian solidarity actions.

The programme will be based on non-formal education methods, interactive workshops, small group work, knowledge sharing, and project-based collaboration. Participants will have the opportunity to connect with organisations from different countries, explore common interests, and develop concrete ideas for future ESC Humanitarian Aid cooperation and applications.

The project aims to:

• Establish new cooperations in ESC Humanitarian Aid

• Exchange experiences and good practices, encourage networking

• Strengthen project development skills, develop new project ideas

• Improve success in future ESC HA calls of youth organisations

Main activities:

1. Staff mobility in Budapest: NGO project managers, youth workers, grant proposal writers spend 5 days together to connect with each other, exchange practical experiences, and develop new partnerships and project ideas for future calls.

2. Online PBA session with hosting organisations will be held to deepen the quality of future cooperations and further develop the initiated project ideas.

3. Dissemination & sustainability: participants share their experiences with their colleagues and the wider public through meetings, local events, and social media; the projects' development continue.
