Young people strengthen European solidarity. That is why we strengthen them.

We offer young Europeans opportunities for exchanges, for personal development and for active participation in civil society.

  • Reviewing 2024

    In our latest newsletter, we look back on the year 2024: on the development of new projects and the continuation of existing ones, and on some of the many current crises and challenges in Europe and the world. We also provide an initial outlook on our activities in the coming year.

  • Young European Security Conference 2025

    On February 27 and 28, 200 young people from across Europe will meet in Berlin to attend a programme focusing on a wide range of topics connected to security policy – such as technology, environment, transatlantic relations, democracy and resilience. At a time when international conflicts and security policy issues are becoming increasingly relevant, we want to give young people the opportunity to engage intensively with these issues, strengthen their skills and make their perspectives heard. You can apply until the end of January.

Our Youth Networks

  • European Youth Parliament

    As one of the largest youth organisations in Europe, EYP is a network by young people, for young people. EYP connects youth across borders and offers spaces for political debates, personal development, and exchanging ideas.
  • Young Islam Conference

    In this dialogue forum, young people from different backgrounds and with diverse biographies can discuss topics concerning our migration society and help shape the discourse of a pluralistic society.
  • Understanding Europe

    The European educational network supports young volunteers in their commitment to democracy, diversity and participation. Using a peer-to-peer approach, they bring democratic citizenship education into classrooms across Europe.

Our Topics

  • Youth Participation

    Young people are the focus of our work. As participants, trainers and multipliers, they shape our programmes — and the future of Europe.

  • Europe

    For us, Europe is an idea. “Thinking European” means understanding that plurality is an opportunity — to look beyond our own horizons.

  • Migration Societies

    We promote post-migrant perspectives to reflect our pluralistic society — but this recognition is still lagging behind.

  • Democratic Citizenship Education

    Democratic citizenship education means strengthening participation — in political processes in Europe and in our communities.
