The 7th ICY conference was successfully organized on October 3-5 in Thessaloniki where a total of 122 participants from 12 european countries emerged and attended keynote speeches, workshops, study visits and parallel events.
Youth work being a common professional link, it was rather easy for the different participants to come as one, exchange ideas, good practices and a number of relative information both within the activities of the program and on the spare time provided exactly for that reason; should that be coffee breaks or guided tours around Thessaloniki.
The official program included 3 keynote speeches, and a number of peripheral speeches ranging from the presentation of youth programs run by the Community Enterprise of Thessaloniki, a welcome speech by a member of the European Commission, Representation in Greece team, 17 workshops and seminars, 7 study visits, 2 presentations of youth programs run by KEDITH and spare-time, ice-breaking and networking activities, both on the conference venue and outdoors.
The flow of the program was as designed and there was a statement issued at the end of the conference, summarizing the main points mentioned on the management of digital youth work.
