PHV Preparatory Workshop, 5-7 June, Solferino-Struga

From 5 to 7 June, the PHV Preparatory Workshop was held at the Solferino Center in Struga. The workshop brought together 22 instructors, along with experienced long-term volunteers, who made a significant contribution to the review and evaluation of this year’s submitted PHV projects.

The projects were evaluated according to pre-established criteria, assessing the project idea, implementation, number of volunteer hours, community involvement and engagement, promotion of activities, and the manner in which they were documented.

This year, a total of 195 small PHV projects were submitted, developed by 1,163 young people. This figure represents a record high over the past ten years. The projects were implemented during the period from March to May 2026.

All of the projects are a source of inspiration and pride for our youth. Once again, they demonstrated that they are true ambassadors of humanity and drivers of positive change within their communities.

Following the completion of the workshop, the team is further strengthened, motivated, and ready to take on new challenges.
