BOLD25 Balkan Regional Youth Leadership Workshop: Civic Engagement in the 21st Century 

BOLD25 Balkan Regional Youth Leadership Workshop: Civic Engagement in the 21st Century 

Bard College Center for Civic Engagement, in collaboration with the American Embassy in Serbia, is accepting applications for a year-long, youth engagement regional workshop focused on Civic Engagement in the 21st Century: Leadership and the Challenge of the Engaged Citizen.

The workshop is designed for a diverse group of emerging youth leaders between ages 18-24 who are interested in exploring notions of civic engagement and ethical leadership while building and practicing project development skills.  Participants will be required to develop a community-based project proposal for implementation.  The goal of the workshop is to provide participants with the tools to become engaged citizens in their own communities. 

The regional workshop includes three phases: 

  1. November 2025: An in-person five-day immersive program, which includes skills-based activities, thematic seminars, community engagement activities, project proposal writing workshops culminating in the submission of a draft , and the development of a peer-led community of practice.
  2. December 2025 – October 2026: Online. The implementation of a peer-led, online community of practice featuring monthly sessions designed by the cohort to support participants through the implementation phase of a community-based project.
  3. October 2026: Culminating event designed by participants.
Application Deadline: October 25, 2025
