The upcoming Symposium on Well-being of Young People in Eastern Europe and Caucasus (EECA) is less than a week away! With a focus on the different aspect of well-being of young people, the Symposium aims to continue strengthening the ties between stakeholders in the field of youth policy of the EECA region. True to its tradition, the EU-CoE youth partnership will bring together policy-makers, researchers, youth workers and youth organisations both from the region and the rest of Europe.

The topics of the working groups will cover a wide range of themes connected to well-being: healthy lifestyles, substance abuse, access to social rights, sexual education, mental health, anxiety issues, self-inflicted violence, self-image, anti-discrimination and others. The panels comprised of main stakeholders will focus on discussing the knowledge approach to well-being and ways of addressing this cross-cutting issue by engaging various actors within the governmental and non-governmental sectors. As always, the Symposium will provide for a unique opportunity for regional stakeholders to meet and exchange experiences, as well as discuss with representatives of other European countries and the EU and Council of Europe.
