Teen Trendsetters – Connecting Young Europeans through ErasmusDays 2026 Five Countries, Six Schools, One European Friendship!

To celebrate ErasmusDays 2026, students and teachers from six partner schools across five European countries will come together for a special international online meeting entitled “Teen Trendsetters – Connecting Young Europeans through ErasmusDays 2026.”
The event will bring together the following schools:
Fatih Sultan Mehmet Secondary School – Türkiye
Escultor José Luis Sánchez Secondary School – Spain
Ali Kütahya Secondary School – Türkiye
I.C. Giuffrida-La Mela Secondary School – Italy
OŠ “Pavao Belas” – Croatia
Collège Albert Thomas – France
All six schools are partners in the international eTwinning project “Teen Trendsetters”, which encourages students aged 12–14 to explore youth culture, share their interests and collaborate with peers across Europe.
During this friendly online gathering, students and teachers will have the opportunity to meet their European partners, introduce themselves, share their interests and discuss what they enjoy most about Erasmus+ projects and international school cooperation.
Students will exchange ideas about friendship, cultural diversity, teamwork, learning English and discovering different European cultures. They will also reflect on why they enjoy participating in international projects and what makes these experiences meaningful and memorable.
The event aims to strengthen European friendships, promote intercultural dialogue, develop students’ communication skills and celebrate the values of cooperation, inclusion and European citizenship.
Through this ErasmusDays celebration, we want to show that international projects bring young people closer together, inspire creativity and help students feel part of a shared European community.
Together, we learn, share, connect and grow – because Europe is stronger when young people work together!
