From June 24th to July 8th, 2001, the ACC carried through a two-week community college for 50 young Europeans, engaged in NGO’s relevant for the topics of the event.
The aim of the CC was in accordance with the general aims of the ACC to stimulate a common European debate on questions and political problems shared by the Europeans.
The Transylvanian community college dealt with the future perspectives of the Central-Eastern-European minorities in the context of the EU-Enlargement. The event developed for Transylvania is going to be a showcase of the general strategy of the ACC, creating more Community Colleges for an Open Europe.
The Transylvania CC is expected to be followed up in the years to come.
The Transylvania Community College 2001 is documented by the help of a video production, a CD-compilation (the presentations, photos and media-coverage produced) and an issue of the Journal of World Education.

Report from the Transylvania Community College 2001. From the foreword: "...the concepts of lifelong learning and non-formal education offer an up-to-date context in which answers to present dilemmas can be found.... there is an urgent need of establishing a permanent common European dialogue and community colleges offer a traditionally effective framework for achieving this aim." (Ágota Illyčs & Barna Kovács, organisers of TCC).
