During the meeting, the Youth Department of Madrid’s City Council was introduced by Farileandro Londoño, Coordinator and Laura Montermini, Youth Advisor of the service Europa Joven Madrid where Xarxa FP Madrid is integrated. Followed by interventions and participations from Madrid’s Mobility Managers José María Merino and Deina Fortes; the intervention of Ismael Codesal, Erasmus+ Coordinator and teacher in CMR Valcárcel, and María Lacasa and Silvia Collado, Erasmus+ Coordinators in Ciudad de los Muchachos.

The participating students come from different educational backgrounds and levels; students about to start their internships abroad, international students currently doing their internship in Madrid, participants of the next Basic VET project and graduates that did their internship abroad as well as volunteers from the European Solidarity Corps program.

Being in different moments of their mobilities, they gathered and discussed in groups about their own experiences, shared the knowledge and motivated one another speaking about the importance of the internationalization of education.

The meeting was followed by a brunch where everyone continued sharing in an informal setting.
