Regional Youth Cooperation Office (RYCO) is pleased to present the projects selected for support under the 7th Open Call “RYCOnnecting YOUth.”
The 7th Open Call, launched on 31 December 2025, attracted strong interest from civil society organisations across the Western Balkans, receiving a total of 157 applications involving 258 partners from the region.
The selected projects reflect the strong potential of civil society organisations and regional partnerships to contribute to youth cooperation, reconciliation, dialogue, peacebuilding, and the development of supportive environments for regional youth structures.
The selection includes projects under the two thematic lots of the Call:
· Lot 1: Youth for Reconciliation, Dialogue, and Peacebuilding
· Lot 2: Supportive and Innovative Environment for Regional Youth Structures
Through these projects, RYCO supports organisations and young people across the Western Balkans in building stronger connections, fostering dialogue and creating opportunities for meaningful youth participation.

The selected projects are now moving into implementation, and RYCO looks forward to working closely with the grantees and their partners in the months ahead.
