Russian term or phrase: способствовала нашей переписке с коллегами
В ХХХ состоялась встреча координаторов акции из разных стран, которую организовала международная организационная группа.

Это письмо-благодарность участника этой встречи к ее организаторам:

Возможность установить дружеские отношения между координаторами Международной акции и ее организаторами *способствовала нашей переписке с коллегами.*

Помогите сформулировать предложение:

The oportunity to establish friendly relations between local coordinators and sponsors of the International action *promoted correspondence between us and our colleagues*.

Так годится или есть есть варианты получше?

I think yours is a good version


Explanation:
I can't think of anything better. I think you are right to say "between us and our colleagues" rather than just "our correspondence with colleagues", it sounds better that way in English even if it is a bit longer. And "promoted" is a good alternative to "facilitated", which I think is best kept for more formal documents.
