ALDA’s TIC-TAC project: the local info-days, organised by partners, from Albania to Ireland

The ALDA project TIC-TAC (Training, Information, Cooperation – Towards Active Citizenship) is deeply entering in its second step with the organisation by partners of numerous local Info-days during the following month.
These local Info-days aim at fostering active citizenship at local level and at increasing the visibility of the Europe for Citizens Programme and disseminating its measures, benefits and working perspectives among local stakeholders. The organizators, which are all TIC-TAC partners, will share what they learned in Brussels during the training session in March with participants of the Info-day and encourage them to use the Europe for Citizens project as a tool for their future activities.
