This year, three members of our Project Team, Joanna, Maciej and Filip, in collaboration with AEGEE-Kraków and the Jagiellonian University, successfully organised the European event EUandYOU from 17-19 May. The conference brought together 20 young people from across Europe, with an additional 30 local youth joining the main session, as a dynamic and diverse group of participants.
The European Conference included interactive sessions, held over three days, and aimed to deepen participants’ understanding of the European Union and the functioning of the European institutions, equipping them with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions during the 2024 European Elections. The program included workshops and debates, which provided valuable insights into the EU’s impact on young people’s lives and future.
In addition to the workshops, the event fostered a sense of European solidarity and cross-cultural exchange, allowing youth to experience the real European spirit. Promoted on the together.eu platform, the conference also received support from the European Parliament Liaison Office in Poland. This collaborative effort not only raised awareness about the importance of voting but also empowered young participants to actively engage in shaping Europe’s future and mobilise other voters in their local communities.
