This virtual camp was held within the Baltic Sea Youth Platforma platform for young people, initiated by young visionaries in the Baltic Sea Region. The BSYC gathered young people from the Baltic Sea Region to explore friendship, culture and politics through workshops, small seminars and social activities.

The workshop also included a short lecture on transnational cooperation, given by Katie Goldie-Ryder, Project Coordinator at the CBSS Secretariat 

During the workshop participants had the opportunity to simulate the real work of developing project ideas, that could be submitted to the CBSS Project Support Facility. As a result, the participants improved their understanding of transnational cooperation in the Baltic Sea Region. Most importantly, despite their differences, the participants demonstrated a willingness to cooperate and work together, to tackle common challenges.
