Is your community’s story getting lost in the scroll? It’s time to change how the world sees minority cultures online.
Join YEN’s Autumn Seminar 2026, hosted with ADJ (Arbeitsgemeinschaft deutscher Jugendorganisationen in Rumänien), the youth organisation of the German minority in Romania. The event features two interactive workshops, plus meetings with local political representatives and a cultural programme.
Expect open conversations, hands-on sessions, and experience sharing with people who understand exactly what it means to carry a minority culture into the digital age. Together, you’ll look at how your organisation communicates today, pick up tools for building an online presence on your own terms, and leave with a branding and storytelling concept and formats ready to bring home.
Along the way, you’ll get to know the German minority community in Transylvania – its history, its cultural heritage, and how it shapes minority politics at local and county level.
