On December 2–3, partners of the KA220-YOU project Balance Your Life gathered in Graz, Austria, for the first transnational project meeting. Organisations from Portugal, Austria, Croatia, Türkiye and Estonia came together for two days of collaboration, strategic planning and shared vision-building.

During the meeting, the consortium advanced on several key components of the project:

• Project management and coordination, ensuring smooth and consistent implementation across all partner countries;
  
  
• Dissemination and sustainability strategies designed to maximise the project’s visibility and long-term impact;
  
  
• Development of the Work-Life Curriculum, which will support young people and youth workers in improving their personal and professional balance;
  
  
• Creation of the Digital Wellbeing Platform, an innovative online space that will host educational resources, learning materials and a series of thematic webinars.
  
  

A special highlight of the gathering was the Sound Circle session, a collaborative and sensory experience that offered a moment of connection and reflection – fully aligned with the project’s mission to promote wellbeing and balance.

This first meeting marked an important step in the project’s journey, strengthening cooperation among partners and setting the foundation for the next implementation phase. The consortium now moves forward with renewed motivation to develop innovative tools that foster digital, emotional and professional wellbeing for young people across Europe.
