What We Do

 

 

 

 

The EYP involves well over 20,000 young people at more than 100 regional, national and international events through 34 national organisations every year.

The flagship events of the EYP are its three annual International Sessions. Each of these sessions brings together about 270 young people from 34 countries for 10 days in different European countries. Look at the EYP Calendar to check out the dates and locations of the upcoming sessions.

The accompanying teachers go through a special teachers´ programme that aims to develop new skills as well as the establishment of pan-European networks. Those networks often serve to establish new exchange and learning projects.

 All EYP sessions follow a similar programme and are based on the same methodology:

  • Firstly the participants divide into international committees and take part in team building.
  • In the ensuing committees the young delegates start working on a current issue of European politics and compose a joint resolution.
  • Finally, the resolutions are debated in a parliamentary General Assembly following the model of the European Parliament in both English and French.
  • Through a rich cultural programme with events such as Euroconcert, Eurovillage or the Country Presentations the participants become active and creative themselves and express themselves through music, acting and dance
