Following the Anna Lindh Foundation Head of Network Meeting, which took place in Berlin from 9–10 June, we had the opportunity to continue the conversations at the offices of Candid Foundation gGmbH.

From 9–10 June, the Heads of Network from the 43 member countries of the Anna Lindh Foundation, together with representatives of the Foundation’s Secretariat, met to discuss priorities for the coming months, the needs of the national networks, and new approaches to strengthening Euro-Mediterranean dialogue and civil society cooperation.

Following the meeting, Josep Ferré, Executive Director of the Anna Lindh Foundation, visited the Candid Foundation together with 11 representatives from various organizations within the German Anna Lindh Network, including Connexus International, Deutsche Welle, Hejmo, Institut DIALOG Transnational e.V., Theaterwerkstatt Hannover, Jugendvision e.V., Eugen Biser Foundation, and Global Women's Forum.

The exchange provided an opportunity to place the perspectives and needs of member organizations at the center of the discussion, address current challenges, and develop shared ideas for future collaboration within the German network.

We would like to thank all participants for the open and engaging discussions, the valuable insights, and their continued commitment to dialogue, mutual understanding, and civil society cooperation.
