Youth Well Project: Youth Professionals Unite in Barcelona to Strengthen Youth Collaboration Across Europe

Youth professionals from across Europe gathered in Barcelona, Spain, from 13 to 17 October 2025, for the Mobility of Youth Professionals for the Design of Joint Projects, a collaborative event hosted by OBREAL.

The mobility brought together dynamic youth workers, trainers, and project leaders to co-create innovative initiatives, exchange expertise, and enhance the sustainability of Youth-Well actions. Through interactive sessions and joint project design, participants explored new strategies to empower young people and foster meaningful, long-term partnerships across borders.

Supported by partner organisations and experienced youth trainers, the mobility provided participants with practical tools to translate the knowledge and skills gained in previous trainings into tangible, high-impact projects. At the conclusion of the programme, participants received Youthpass certificates, recognising their dedication to quality youth work, continuous learning, and civic engagement.

The Youth-Well project embodies a growing movement to strengthen the professional community of youth workers across Europe, building a resilient network dedicated to creating lasting opportunities and driving positive change for young people. Addressing the complex challenges at the intersection of youth, mental health, democracy, and resilience, Youth-Well seeks to empower young people across participating EU Member States. The project encourages them to take ownership of their wellbeing, their engagement in democratic life, and their role in shaping a more inclusive future.

Through its activities, Youth-Well supports young people in developing their own initiatives and projects that champion both mental health and active citizenship, fostering a generation of confident, connected, and civically engaged Europeans.

Together, we are shaping a stronger, more connected future for Europe’s youth.
