From behind the scenes to centre-stage conversations, here’s a look at days of RCC’s EU-funded #WBYL2 project at the @adriafuture2026.

Between the Mid-Term Review Conference on Disinformation and Media Literacy and the Fireside Talk on youth cooperation and EU integration, WBYL2 brought young people, policymakers, experts and partners together in #Tivat.

Across panels, discussions, presentations and all other moments, one thing stood out 👉🏻 young people from the #WesternBalkansSix are not just part of the conversation, they are helping lead it.

Here’s a glimpse of the moments that brought it all together.

Disinformation spreads fast, so critical thinking has to move faster. 🔎🧑🏻‍💻

Youth representatives and policymakers from across the #WesternBalkansSix gathered in #Tivat for the Mid-Term Review Conference on Disinformation and Media Literacy ⏭️ organised by RCC’s EU-funded #WBYL2 project

From skills in using AI tools, to media literacy manuals, influencer codes of conduct, journalist guidelines, and youth participation in media, the Youth Policy Lab is moving from ideas to action 👉🏻 because media literacy is more than spotting fake news ⏭️ it’s about giving young people the tools, confidence and space to take part in public life.

Young people ➕ policymakers at the same table 👉🏻 that’s what real youth participation looks like.

Through RCC’s EU-funded #WesternBalkansYouthLab, we listen & focus on what really matters for youth across the region ⏭️ from youth unemployment, mental health, disinformation and media literacy and green transformation.

This week at @adriafuture2026 we’re bringing the conversation forward:
👉🏻 Fifth Regional Fireside Talk on youth cooperation & EU integration
🔎 Mid-Term Review of the Youth Policy Lab on Disinformation & Media Literacy

Because when young people are part of the conversation, policies work better and progress feels real!

Stay tuned.

When people think of RCC, they usually see cooperation in the #WesternBalkansSix 👉🏻 that’s true, but our role goes far beyond one region and one agenda.

Here are 5 things you probably didn’t know about RCC:
1️⃣ RCC started as peace-building, became long-term economic and political cooperation hub

🔥 Youth belongs at the core of regional growth. ⏭️ as the key message from today’s #FiresideTalk organised by RCC’s EU-funded WBYL2, in #Tirana.

In a room full of energy and ideas, the panel brought together: @DanijelaGacevic, RCC’s Head of Programme Department, Ritva Heikkinen, Head of Cooperation @EUinAlbania, Niklas Strom Ambassador @SwedeninAL , @LiraPipa @MtksGovAL and Kreshnik Loka Deputy SG @RYCOwb, moderated by @OgiMarkovic7 , opening an honest dialogue with young people on their role in shaping the #GrowthPlan and Common Regional Market.

They all agreed on one thing: youth are not a footnote, they are the engine. Every policy, every decision, every regional step forward impacts young people first.
This region grows when young people lead.
And today proved it. 💙🌍

We planted a seed in #Sarajevo, watched it take root in #Tivat, and now it’s growing strong in #Ljubljana. 🌿

Grateful to everyone in this photo bellow - you proved that real change grows when we plant it #together. 🌱

This isn’t an end — it’s the start of something green. 💚

Honoured by The Economist’s invitation to contribute ahead of the Berlin Process Summit in London. I tried to explain why regional cooperation remains vital -and how it can help the Balkans finally lay its ghosts to rest.
