NGOs visit Gyöngyös

Leaders of civil society organisations from four cities met in Gyöngyös in the framework of the Citizens for Towns project, 09-11 August 2024. The Hungarian delegation from Gyöngyös, Kézdivásárhely (Transylvania, Romania) and Lodygowice (Poland) took part in a full-day training session, in addition to cultural and gastronomic activities. The programme started on Friday with a city quiz and a sightseeing walk, during which the foreign visitors had to answer questions about the city in a playful way, and ended the day with dinner and wine tasting.

 



In the programme, the trainers focused primarily on what can be achieved by the civil society organisations of a city without any special financial investment, simply by joining forces. During the programme, it soon became clear that environmental protection and the improvement and beautification of their own immediate environment were of paramount importance to NGOs. By the end of the day, they had created a joint project portfolio, containing jointly developed development ideas.
