August – September: INFO DKMT – What is the DKMT Euroregion?
In order to make the DKMT Euroregion popular, we initiated an information campaign on cross-border cooperation. It took place in several localities from Timis county (Timisoara, Deta, Buzias, Periam, Satchinez, Sânmihaiu Român), where we distributed folders presenting the DKMT Euroregion. The folders offered information about the advantages of cross-border cooperation, about the structure of the Euroregion, statistic data, and a short vocabulary of cross-border cooperation.
June: The campaign It’s time to decide for yourself (participation as partner)
Organizer: The Agency for Political Studies and Civic Education Timisoara (ASPECT)

The campaign aimed to encourage youth participation in the life of local community. It resulted in the publication and distribution of informative materials, and the basis for provisions of “The Chart of Youth Participation in Local and Regional Life” was created.
February – March: Multiple Cultural Identities in the Danube-Cris-Mures-Tisa (DKMT) Euroregion
Partners: Democracy after Communism – Budapest, Hungary
Financing: The Timis County Department for Youth and Sports, Prompt S.A. Timisoara
The program implied 30 young persons from the Hungarian and Romanian parts of DKMT Euroregion; it consisted in a series of reunions with personalities of cultural, political and religious life, as well as representatives of the minorities from Timisoara and Timis county.
The goal of these reunions, workshops and round tables was to know better the local and regional realities, the intercultural context, and to build new relations between organizations. Because of the political situation of that moment, the Serbians were not included in the program.
