We’re excited to announce the launch of the Call for Proposals of the AU-EU Youth Action Lab! If you’re part of a youth-led organisation in the European Union (EU) or one of the 12 African Union (AU) countries listed below, this is your chance to secure funding for innovative projects tackling global challenges.

At COP29 in Baku, leaders finally reached an agreement on climate finance—but it fell far short of what’s needed. Wealthier countries, including the EU, failed to take bold steps to support vulnerable populations and phase out fossil fuels. The European Youth Forum stands with youth activists worldwide, demanding real accountability and policies that prioritize future generations and the planet over empty promises.

The European Youth Forum condemns, in the strongest possible terms, the interference with the electoral process in Georgia facilitated by the ruling Georgian Dream party. We call for free and fair national elections to be reorganised in Georgia and reiterate our support for Georgia's European integration.
