A Sea of Words 2025 - Call for Young Participants!
This programme creates spaces for intercultural encounters between young people in order to promote exchanges of experiences and ideas between peers, identify shared values in the region and transcend those stereotypes that tear us apart. By doing so, it aims to equip young people with tools so they can play a relevant role in future societies and actively promote the values of diversity and co-existence in the Euro-Mediterranean area. It features the youth contest “A Sea of Words”, organised in collaboration with the Anna Lindh Foundation and its national networks. This year’s A Sea of Words edition invites young authors from across the Euro-Mediterranean region to reflect on these issues through storytelling. Through literary creation, participants are encouraged to envision possible futures for the Mediterranean, exploring both the challenges and opportunities ahead. Participants are encouraged to create stories that help rethink who we are and where we aspire to go at this crucial moment for the region’s future.
This call is for young people between 18-30 years with nationality/residence from one of the 43 countries of the Euro-Mediterranean area. The deadline for submission of application is 31st May 2025.
