Organised in collaboration with the Aspen Strategy Group, the Aspen Institute Romania and the Aspen Institute Italia, the Solidarity in Action initiative aims at empowering young civil society leaders from the Western Balkans, the European Union and the United States. Over the course of eight months, a cohort of 20 emerging leaders will actively discuss threats to peace, security and democracy in the Western Balkans, as well as challenges to transatlantic cooperation in the region. These discussions will serve as the basis for the co-creation of policy recommendations, which will then be distributed to decision-makers in the EU, the U.S. and the Western Balkans.
This project is funded by the Aspen Global Fund.
