Support Connect’ED in the Interreg Slam 2026–2027

Young people from the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany are coming together through Connect’ED, an initiative that connects young people across borders. Now, Connect’ED needs your support to win the Social Media Award in the Interreg Slam 2026–2027!

Connect’ED is one of the finalists, and you can help them win by watching the video and reacting to the original posts on social media.

How can you vote?

Every like and heart counts as a vote. Votes are counted on both platforms:

• Facebook: like or heart the original video post on Interact's Facebook page.
• YouTube: like the original YouTube Short on Interact's YouTube channel.

The project that receives the highest combined number of reactions on both platforms will win the Social Media Award. The award will be presented during the final ceremony in Alicante, Spain, in the week of 10–14 May.

Help spread the word!

You can make a difference by sharing the videos with your network:

• Share both original links on your project's and programme's social media accounts.
• Encourage your partners, programme communication officers and peers to share the videos too.
• Include the links in your website, newsletter and mailing lists, with a short message in your own language encouraging people to watch and react.
• Remind your network once again before voting closes on 30 November.

Important: Only reactions on Interact's original Facebook and YouTube posts count. Please share the original links rather than downloading and re-uploading the videos. Votes on copied videos cannot be counted.

Let's show the power of cross-border cooperation and help Connect’ED win!

Every like and heart counts. Thank you for your support!
