European Youth Forum Campaing for a Separate EU Youth Programme

The European Youth Forum (YFJ) is launching a public campaign for a strong and independent Youth in Action Programme for non-formal education, youth work and democratic youth organisations.

As the YFJ states, young people, especially in times of crisis and economic austerity, need strong investments; they must be a political and financial priority for Europe. These reasons highlight the importance of a separate EU youth programme and justify its prolongation.

The YFJ asks all representatives of the youth field to send their message through the website of the campaign (http://www.whereareyouthgoing.eu/), as well as to add its link to their websites, newsletters, Facebook pages and send it to their friends, Members of the European Parliament and relevant stakeholders in their country.

ERYICA is happy to inform our stakeholders of this initiative and invites considering its aims and envisaged actions.
