They have been co-created with EU institutions, international organisations, civil society, youth organisations and the participants themselves. The event is hosted by the European Parliament in Strasbourg, with part of the programme taking place outdoors in the EYE Village. It will also be possible to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/european-youth-event.europarl.europa.eu\/en\/take-part\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">take part in the event online<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>2024 European elections to shape EU\u2019s future<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EP President Roberta Metsola will open the event on Friday at 10.30 in Parliament\u2019s hemicycle. Subsequent activities inside the EP premises and in the EYE Village will allow participants to discuss their ideas with policy- and decision-makers, experts and activists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis year&#8217;s European Youth Event is especially important, because it is the last one before the European elections in 2024. My appeal to all participants is to take this experience back to your cities, towns and villages. To get involved. To spread the message of Europe. To vote. And to get your friends and family to vote too. Because ultimately the future of Europe depends on you\u201d, President Metsola said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find more details about the schedule, speakers and activities (including two open-air concerts on the Friday and Saturday evenings) in the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eye2023.eu\/programme\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">programme<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Outcome of the discussions<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the closing session on Saturday at 16.30, the ideas, expectations and concerns of young people will be summarised and brought together in a Youth Ideas Report, to be distributed to all MEPs. Some participants will be able to develop the ideas they consider the most inspiring and present them directly to MEPs during an EYE Hearing planned for Autumn 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Around 10,000 young people from the EU and beyond will meet in Strasbourg to discuss Europe\u2019s future, against the backdrop of the war against Ukraine and upcoming European elections.
