Here I am again after a whole year in Mollina university for Youth and Development..an initiative that started many years agofrom the cooperation of the Spanish governemt, with the governments of Latin America to create a space for young people tocome closer and work and also to meet each other...Last year I have been working with colleagues from the Pool of Trainers of the Youth Forum, working on Global Education and creating tools for trainers on how to deal with this issue..This year I am working for the Spanish Youth Council, with young leaders trying to create a commmon understanding on Millenium Development Goals between young leaders from all over the world and also a sustainable network between them..
For those who do not know, Mollina is a small village 80 km. north of Malaga and has this CEULAT which is the center for the cooperation of the youth of Europe and Latin America. North-South centre of Council of Europe is the coordinator and organiser and every year a big team from them arrive to coordinate and organise the event. North-South centre has its headquarters in Lisbon/Portugal.
Mollina is one of the events that somebody can meet most of the stakeholders and actors of Youth WOrk in Europe together. Organisations like the Youth Forum and North-South centre, Asian-European Foundation and organisations such as Youth For Exchange and Understanding, AEGEE, Alliance of European VOlunteers Service Organisations,Youth Express Network (check my links on the left column) and many more, as well as National Youth Councils, participate actively there with their activities and have volunteers and participants usually all over the world ,creating a great colourful event,with a lot of expertise and experimental learning (apart from each organisations methods).

Really forward to be back here and work and offer my best to the team and steal some of the intercultural experience of allthe event..More than 14 members of the PoT will be involved here,so this means fun and nice talks in between..And the nights are already busy, going to Paco's, which is the only Pub in the village and it happens to be the mayor of the village also...lots of intercultural and informal learning between the participants, I would say it's one experience every youth worker has to live at least once in his/her Youth Work life..
