Last updated on Monday, 09/12/2024

Does your organisation have ideas and expertise on how to engage youth and bring the EU closer to them? Are you committed to amplifying the voice of young people and ensuring they are heard at the European level? Then we have a proposal for you – join the 11th cycle of the EU Youth Dialogue! You can apply until 6 January.

EU YOUTH DIALOGUE

The EU Youth Dialogue (EUYD) is a forum for continuous joint reflection and consultation with young Europeans on the priorities, implementation, and follow-up of European cooperation in the field of youth. This participatory process involves young people, youth organisations, policy and decision-makers, as well as experts, researchers and civil society actors on policies, strategies, and initiatives at local, regional, national and European level. This process supports the implementation of EU youth policy and is a critical mechanism for youth participation in policy-making across the European Union.

The EU Youth Dialogue is organised in 18-month work cycles. The 11th cycle runs from January 2025 to June 2026 over the course of the Polish, Danish and Cypriot EU Trio Presidencies and will focus on youth goal 1: Connecting the EU with Youth.

OPEN CALL FOR INGYOs

This call is open for INGYOs and networks on the European level (one application per organisation will be considered). 

Selected INGYOs will have an excellent opportunity to: 

• Contribute to the largest youth participation process in the EU.
