This report is been written in both English and Flemish combined, since it is build up with the help of our volunteers writing in different languages With this first Grant Agreement within our accreditation, we wanted to experiment, learn and grow focused on these 6 following objectives. We mainly focused on objective 2 (setting up meetings and creating connections), objective 3 (international network for creative youth work) and objective 4 (youth participation). Objective 1 (anchoring), objective 5 (increase impact) and objective 6 (strengthen Koning Kevin as an organization) also played a role in the choices we made during the process and the organization of the activities. Objective 1: Anchoring. Koning Kevin believes in the power of international exchange and gives internationalization a structural place in its organization. This objective ties in with the wishes of members (volunteers and staff) within Koning Kevin to further develop the international component of the organization. There is much 'desire' and need to look beyond the international walls, find inspiration and help build a strong international youth work landscape. To realize this, the organization must grow with it. For this reason, we are formulating two actions. One internal action to ensure continuity when colleagues would change. A second action to raise awareness of the international opportunities at Koning Kevin for young people who already know Koning Kevin (as participants or volunteers) and young people who do not yet know Koning Kevin. Objective 2: Establish meetings and create connections. This objective is partly thematic and ties in with the need for intercultural dialogue, a safe platform where themes and issues can be discussed (racism, poverty, ecology, mental well-being...) with a lot of diversity at the table. We deliberately choose to put no fixed themes, but to leave this open and filled in by young people. Setting up meetings and creating connections has a structural and practical dimension that requires enough time and thought. By structurally anchoring our international project work, we will have more opportunities to grow. Apart from this structural dimension, we proceed in a thoughtful way, with the necessary flexibility, thinking about the nature and organization of activities and a strong framework. Objective 3: Establish an international network for creative youth work. Koning Kevin breathes arts and culture. Koning Kevin nurtures the ambition to set up a European network for creative youth work. This by organizing a bi-annual course within a theme that belongs to Koning Kevin's (creative) expertise. In this way we bring together organizations with an art education approach around (a theme of) creative youth work. In this way we gather thematic knowledge and expertise. All of this with a focus on exchange to broaden our view, reflect on our own practice and create new partnerships. Objective 4: Youth Participation. Koning Kevin sees young people as the most important partner to shape and help to spread Koning Kevins international story. Koning Kevin's (international) initiatives are made for and by young people. King Kevin sees young people as owners of the project. Youth participation is strongly anchored into Koning Kevin's (international) project work. This should continue to be nurtured. Both the "bigger picture" (such as this accreditation application) and the concrete development of an international project is a result of a close collaboration between young people, volunteers and staff member of Koning Kevin. Through a participatory approach, young people are closely involved in the design and development of international projects. Thus, they develop specific skills such as taking initiative, working together as a team, taking responsibility, showing leadership, etc. Koning Kevin continues to promote youth participation as a foundation of the international operation. Objective 5: Increase impact of our project work. Koning Kevin's ambition is to make "deep waves" with our international projects. This is to maximize learning opportunities from these projects and bring it to as many people and organizations as possible. Objective 6: Make Koning Kevin stronger as an organization. Koning Kevin is a learning organization that strengthens and substantively enriches itself in various areas thanks to the international path we're taking. We like to translate this inspiration into concrete initiatives within our operation and, in this way, affect our core missions.
