The workshop offered participants opportunities to exchange experiences of youth skills promotion. The discussions, both in the plenaries and regional groups, led to the consensus that the organisations, despite being based in different countries and regions, shared similar challenges during their undertaking. The outcome of the discussions helped the participants draft their national, regional, and interregional projects on promoting skills for the young and strengthening partner organisations.  

The participants also garnered valuable insights into the framework and methodology of organisational development, while sharing their own problems in the process of building their organisations, to which PRIA responded with helpful advice and suggestions.
