Resolution: A Framework for the Next Structured Dialogue Cycle: Enabling All Young People to Engage in a Diverse, Connected and Inclusive Europe
This Resolution falls within the scope of the Structured Dialogue topic on “Enabling All Young People to Engage in a Diverse, connected and inclusive Europe” during the Council of the EU Presidency of the Netherlands, Slovakia and Malta. It also reflects the European Commission’s renewed focus on inclusion of young people, highlighted through the EU Youth Report, as well as the changes European societies are facing in light of current challenges such as the integration of refugees. This Framework aims to define the key topics and actions that young people wish to see reflected in the process.
