The European Commission has announced the results of the 2025 Erasmus+ Capacity-building in the field of youth call for projects.
Out of 55 projects selected for support in EU, Erasmus+, Eastern and the Southern Mediterranean countries, 9 are coordinated by organisations from the Western Balkans: one from Albania, two from Bosnia and Herzegovina, one from Montenegro, and five from Serbia.
These projects address diverse priorities, including strengthening youth civic participation and leadership, tackling discrimination and hate speech through creativity, boosting employability with entrepreneurial and green skills, supporting mental health with humor-based resilience, promoting gender equality through storytelling, fostering rural–urban innovation via agrotourism, advancing youth safety with new methodologies, building interethnic respect for peacebuilding, and empowering youth to engage in health and wellbeing policies.

About Erasmus+ Capacity building in the field of youth projects
Capacity-building projects are international cooperation projects based on multilateral partnerships between organisations active in the field of youth. They aim to support international cooperation and policy dialogue in the field of youth and non-formal learning, as a driver of sustainable socio-economic development and well-being of youth organisations and young people.
The topics of capacity building projects are political participation and dialogue with decision-makers, inclusion of young people with fewer opportunities, democracy, rule of law and values, empowerment, engagement and employability of young people, peace and post-conflict reconciliation, environment and climate, anti-discrimination and gender equality, digital and entrepreneurial skills.
