To train your peers on the topic “European Parliament. Why should young people vote for the European Parliament?”

After the successful implementation of a series of trainings by active young people within the framework of the initiative “Peers train peers” on the topic “European Union and European Institutions”, the time has come to start the next training activities related to the upcoming elections for the European Parliament and the importance of everyone who have the right to vote to participate fairly and actively. During the month of May, active young people who wish to follow the path of educational activism will focus their efforts on the topic “European Parliament. Why should young people vote for the European Parliament?”. This topic will not only give them the opportunity to develop their knowledge about the structure and functions of the European Parliament, but also highlight the importance of active participation of young people in the European political scene.

By gaining a broader understanding of the role of the European Parliament and the impact that young voices can have in its work, active youth will be equipped to educate and motivate their peers to participate in the electoral process. They will seek to remove any barriers or prejudices that may prevent young people from engaging in political activity and voting for their representatives in the European Parliament. In this way, they will continue their impact on the community, encouraging active civic participation and contributing to a stronger and more dynamic European democracy.
