Organizations from Arab Mediterranean countries and from the Eastern vicinity space made significant progress in youth work, they have experience with the old programmes before Erasmus+, but the fast and sometimes radical changes through which the communities where they activate have been through lead to some changes and new attitudes that we don’t understand from our perspective of programme countries. The project ICE – International Cooperation Evolution aims to stimulate cooperation and international partnerships between youth organizations from the programme and the ones from the partner countries (according to Erasmus+ Guide 2015) by offering a learning environment that will facilitate the exchange of knowledge, ideas and good practices, as well as the development of new mobility projects together in the future. The objectives of ICE are: -To organize two international meetings during September-October 2015, each reuniting 10 youth organizations (5 from programme countries and 5 from partner countries) and 34 participants (youth workers, trainers, youth leaders, project managers). -To promote cooperation in youth work at international level by exchanging knowledge, ideas and good practices on the whole duration of the project, in the light of openness and tolerance -To sketch minimum 5 ideas of future Erasmus+ projects through brainstorming and group work of the participants and to develop them in the e-forms at the time of the activities, at each of the 2 international meetings. The projects will be applied at various National Agencies, depending on the availability of the partners involved (the 1st of October 2015 and first deadline of February 2016). -To create online resources in order to be used in common by all the partner organization but not only: Facebook group (for real-time communication); Wordpress blog (to publish tailored relevant information, at all stages of the project); Google Drive database (to transfer know-how about methods, ideas for activities, common sketching of projects). ICE project will have two mobility, both of them in the autumn of 2015: -The first mobility is a contact making seminar for partnership building which will take place in Poiana Negrii, Romania, between 2 and 8 September 2015, bringing together 34 participants which will represent organizations from 10 countries: Romania, Italy, Poland, Belgium, Macedonia, Morocco, Tunisia, Palestinian Authority, Jordan and Egypt. Each partner organization will send 3 participants, selected from its youth workers, youth leaders, experts and close collaborators. The host organization will include in this mobility 7 persons, from which 4 participants, youth workers and youth leaders of the organization, and 2 experts and 1 facilitator which will ensure the specific content of the sessions in the programme of activities, as well as the learning environment and the integration of the group. The main aim of this seminar is to constitute sustainable partnerships between organization from the programme countries and the ones from MEDA countries (Mediterranean Arab area). -The second mobility is also a contact making seminar for partnership building which will take place in Poiana Negrii, Romania, between 4 and 10 October 2015, bringing together 34 participants which will represent organizations from 10 countries: Romania, Belgium, Italy, Poland, Macedonia, Russia, Moldova, Georgia, Ukraine and Armenia.

The methods applied in the two mobility of ICE are: integrative (stimulating the group cohesion), creative (stimulating the artistic sense and non-formal expression), open space (stimulating free and voluntary expression of the participants), debate (stimulating the constructive exchange of ideas and arguments), learning by doing (stimulating the capacity of the participants to manage real-life situations), reflection and self-reflection (stimulating a better awareness of the participants towards the learning process), evaluation (stimulating the participants to give feedback).
