The European Economic and Social Committee is organising a virtual public hearing to serve as a basis for its own-initiative opinion on “The EU Youth Test”. 

Young people are often under-represented in policy-making processes, but are strongly affected by the outcomes. It is therefore necessary to assess the impact that any new proposals may have on European youth and to identify the necessary mitigation measures to avoid negative impacts. The objective of this opinion on “The EU Youth Test” is to examine how the engagement of young people can be promoted so that their perspective is incorporated into policy-making at all levels.

The aim of the hearing is to learn more about the experience of Member States already implementing the Youth Test and to examine youth participation in the context of Europe's future.
