Different strategies towards a common aim

The team of EXCEPT Project organized on 21st of September 2016 in Sofia a public event which gathered public authorities, researchers and other stakeholders to discuss the most important challenges faced by the youth inclusion public policies both at European and national levels.

Pepka Boyadjieva from the Bulgarian team of NEGOTIATE Project gave a presentation entitled “Overcome EXCEPT-ion and NEGOTIATE: Towards building an inclusive and fair society.” She familiarized the audience with the objectives and analytical perspectives of the NEGOTIATE Project. By comparing the main aims of the two projects Boyadjieva demonstrated that they apply different strategies in order to help elaborating effective and innovative policies towards a common goal – building an inclusive and fair society.
