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

From July 20 to 28, the European Youth Parliament (EYP) is hosting its milestone 100th International Session in Thessaloniki, Greece. Marking 37 years of youth-led civic education, the event will bring together 250 young people from 37 countries to form policy proposals, engage with experts and speakers, and connect through social and cultural activities.

In this interview, our Young European of 2024, Munira Mohamud, introduces herself and her work as an activist and artist dedicated to addressing racism, social injustices, and identity. She talks about her goals and challanges she is facing - and tells us how she is trying to inspire other young people to get involved and make a difference in society.

As part of our commitment to an open, united and democratic Europe, we as a foundation repeatedly join campaigns and activities of other civil society organisations and alliances that share this vision. This is also the case now with the signing of the position paper "Our Europe" as part of the European elections and the petition "Right now. For all." petition, which is aimed at the current budget debate.
