The project supports young people aged 18–30 in developing creative, digital and civic skills through training, international exchanges, creative workshops and audiovisual production activities.
This call is open to professionals based in France, Egypt, Spain, Türkiye, and Tunisia who have experience working with young people and who would like to become part of the MED YCI network. We are looking for:

- 10 artists or creative professionals working in disciplines such as theatre, visual arts, photography, video, podcasting, radio, music, dance, illustration, graphic design, digital creation or other participatory artistic practices.
Selected contributors may participate in the project’s Training of Trainers programme, deliver training sessions or creative workshops, mentor young people’s projects and contribute to the production of the MED YCI audiovisual programme (MedTalks). International mobility is foreseen for the selected artists.
