Alternativi International Annual Report 2018 ANNUAL REPORT 2018 | Seite 2

Dear Reader, This year annual report message we would like to start with the quote ‘’Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed, citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.” Moreover, we dedicate this report to the change makers and change itself without which there is no progress! Alternativi has been going through a major transformation over the past years and it is not easy to assess the transformation impact from one single year’s results, but when looking back, it becomes clear just how much has changed. The 2018 was very important as we have done many things for the first time-we have opened our very own youth center called The Place, we have hosted our first group EVS with 28 young people, we have coordinated our very first KA2 Strategic partnership project and most of all-we did it well. We are very proud with expanding our network on already 4 continents and provide quality youth information to thousands of young people all over the world. We strengthen the cooperation with organizations from Europe, Asia, Middle east and North African countries as well as South America by the various activities we’ve implemented. Our teams feels engaged and empowered to always do better and push our shared ambitions to greater heights. Our transformation journey will continue to build from what we have been achieving. Moreover, Alternativi was once again awarded for high quality project management by the Bulgarian National Agency for Erasmus+ and the Ministry of Education. We have conducted various educational activities on local and international level, inspired thousands of young people to make a change themselves and get active and we spread peace and tolerance. Being one of the most known organization in Bulgaria is a privilege for us and it serves as motivation for us to go beyond in 2019. We want to thank our team member, volunteers, partners and other shareholders for their continued trust, for their commitment, energy and irrepressible drive to always improve and reach for the stars! Sincerely, Georgi Kuzmanov & Petya Kulina CEOs and Founders
