From 6 November to 13 November, the International Meeting of the project SPECIAL - Solidarity Purposes Enhance Cooperation Initiatives And Learning, funded by the Europe for Citizens Programme in the framework of the Town Twinning action, took place in the municipality of Bükkábrány, a municipality located in the province of Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén. The project SPECIAL was led by the organisation MOKLASZ, which coordinated a partnership composed of the local council of the municipality of Swieqi (Malta), the municipality of Vallerano (Italy), the association NikArt Journey (Cyprus), the municipality of Gallese (Italy) and the municipality of Jevisovice (Czech Republic).

The International Meeting of SPECIAL allowed the meeting of delegations from different countries, who were able to dialogue and exchange opinions and ideas in an environment that fostered cooperation between different municipalities and associations. Cooperation between small local realities fosters the emergence of bottom-up collaborations, encouraging the enlargement of the exchange network of European municipalities, which are geographically and culturally different but united by shared European values.
