The Youth Vision for the Future of Europe
This document outlines the European Youth Forum’s vision of a better Europe, one which includes and directly relates to young people. As young people and the most pro-European generation, we reject the current reality where political decisions alienate youth and exclude us from society. Here, we present the Europe we want. A youth vision of a Europe where decisions are made with young people, in a sustainable, democratic and inclusive way.
This vision paper will serve as basis for a 3-year pan-European campaign on the #FutureofEurope, led by the European Youth Forum and its member organisations, targeting the European elections in 2019.
