On behalf of over 100 national and international youth networks that represent millions of young people, the European Youth Forum calls on Ministries of Foreign Affairs to guarantee that the Youth Sector of the Council of Europe remains in the ordinary budget of the organisation.

In October 2017, 120 youth representatives came together at the 4th Africa-Europe Youth Summit to shape conversations about the present and the future of youth in our two continents. The Abidjan Declaration sets out demands for the future of youth in the Africa-EU Partnership and to advance the rights and the interests of young people both in Africa and in Europe.
