It's a summary of the 7 U4EU Community Dialogue Events, the Info Day and the Youth Workshop that were organised during the implementation of the project “Youth Debating the Future of Europe (U4EU)” in nine European countries (Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Hungary, Portugal, Spain, Greece, and Bulgaria) from September 2021 until June 2022.
In the last years a number of events took place across Europe and have challenged the founding values of the European Union: the Eurozone crisis, the refugee crisis and Brexit have led to an increase in Euroscepticism.
396 young people (in total) from different EU countries participated in our project with the purpose to generate a debate about the future of Europe, to provide alternatives to existing problematic situations and to get informed about the project and the importance of volunteering and youth participation.
These events aimed to suggest ways of creating a more democratic Union and to develop stronger sense of ownership about the E.U.
During these events, the Video “What Does Europe Mean to Me…?” that was produced during the first months of the project, was projected and informational lectures about EU institutions and policies were organised.
