Stakeholder Meeting: Polish-German Young Professionals Programme
How can a Polish-German Young Professionals Programme contribute to a stronger Europe?
The European Academy Berlin invites selected stakeholders to a background discussion to jointly lay the foundation for a new bilateral initiative: the Polish-German Young Professionals Programme (PGYPP). The aim is to develop sustainable structures for professional exchange, civic education, and cross-border networking among emerging professionals from both countries.
At the heart of the event lies the guiding question:
How can such a programme strengthen European cohesion and provide new impetus for Polish-German cooperation?
What is it about?
Together with partners from politics, business, academia, and civil society, the European Academy Berlin (EAB) is hosting a closed-door stakeholder meeting to discuss and develop the concept of the Polish-German Young Professionals Programme (PGYPP).
