ESC: Different Cultures on the same Wavelength - ESC XXIII.

Our organization was established in 2002, and we have led the Mustárház Youth Information and Advisory Office in Nyíregyháza since 2005. This office keeps contact with the Municipality of Nyíregyháza about carrying out their task and implementing youth tasks. We were consultant to the city when they created the youth concept. We were also asked to expert on the youth concept of the county in 2013. We are charter members of the National Youth Council, permanent participant of the committee of municipality and territorial civil. Our Local and Territorial civil embeddedness is at a high level. We have spread experience on an international level, and we are members of a Middle- Europe youth professional network. (7 countries, 23 organizations). We organized a town-twinning meeting in 2008 supported by EACEA (5 cities), and thematic conferences (5 cities). We carried out a cultural pattern survey in 10 cities in 2010 also supported by EACEA. In 2012-2013 we carried out a youth professional exchange with our Romanian partner support as well EACEA. We accept EVS volunteers,and we have an accreditation for 11 people. A part of the project is to make a survey in 3 cities, wherein we research the youngsters’ cultural, civil and social habits. We have already done a survey in our county in 2012. Every survey we have done has been publicized as well in the form of publication, and those are also reachable on our webpage. We are the professional practice place of
the University of Nyíregyháza, so the Social worker and the Youth worker students can learn the framework of our organization in this field.
