First of all, it is necessary to point out that this project was initiated and applied for in 2019, the physical gathering planned to be implemented in March 2020. With the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the project was paused and only continued two years later, finally implemented in person from 26 November to 4 December 2022. The program was initiated in order to find out which topics are actually of concern for young people in Europe, what moves them and what makes them interested in politics or even pushes them to become actively involved. Furthermore, the project’s goal was to bring those young Europeans from different countries together and give them a space to share and discuss these issues as well as their needs, and to be a stepstone on their way to becoming responsible European citizens. At the start of the project, young people from seven European countries (Greece, Netherlands, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Norway and Germany) shared their concerns and formulated a common statement, which from then on became the core of the project. In their statement, they embraced the original idea of the European Union, but strongly criticized the politicians, above all regarding their handling of the climate crisis, the refugee situation, and the European education system. Although the young people did not know much about politics, they wanted their opinions to be heard, their questions to be asked, and they wanted to use this project to make their common dream of Europe become real. They also expressed their interest in Europe’s history, its origins in the times after World War II, and in the unprecedented success of having created peace in those war-torn times. Unfortunately, those young people who were part of the initiation of the project could not be the ones coming together in Bad Marienberg at the end of 2022, but all of us partners bothered to remain in that initial spirit of their “European dream project”. The actual group of people meeting in person in 2022 obviously brought an even wider range of topics with them. Still shaken by the experiences of illness and lockdown during the pandemic, everyone was accompanied by the everyday dark news of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. But although these were other young people than those initiating the project (the Dutch delegation even dropped out completely), we found the same concerns and questions in that new group of youngsters. With almost no expressed differences between countries, they all worried about a lack of activity by politics, and they all shared the same hopes for their futures. Thus, we stayed with our initial objectives and centered around this European dream, asking questions like: Where do we come from? What are our (common) values? Are we still living this dream? Which topics move us? What can I individually do to become active and be an agent of change? This project was also designed to be an intercultural learning experience, including informal parts that cater for new friendships, fun and informal processes to grow, individually and as a group.
