On 18 June 2025 Association Cz-Art and IV Secondary School (IV LO) in Częstochowa concluded the international Career Gardeners project with a discussion panel titled "Często-chowa potencjał. Let's Gather It Together."

The event brought together students, teachers, city representatives – including the vice mayor and council members – as well as universities and social organisations.

Career Gardeners was not a typical careers guidance programme. It encouraged young people to explore their values and reflect on how their future careers could contribute to a fairer, more inclusive, and sustainable world. Through workshops participants developed key soft skills, such as communication, teamwork, entrepreneurship, and critical thinking. They learned about the UN Sustainable Development Goals, met social and environmental activists, and created micro-projects for Częstochowa focused on culture, health, and education.

The organisers highlighted that Career Gardeners represents a modern approach to education, combining personal growth with social and environmental responsibility. At the panel, young people shared their ideas for improving the city, sparking lively discussions full of energy, creativity, and collaboration.
