The YEIC project aims to promote active citizenship and social inclusion of young people, especially those from disadvantaged backgrounds, while strengthening their understanding of the European Institutions and their democratic engagement. Through a partnership between France and North Macedonia, the project promotes the exchange of ideas and perspectives, focusing on young people from non-EU countries. It provides participants with concrete learning opportunities, developing skills in leadership, intercultural communication and project management. YEIC aims to create a sustainable network of young European leaders, fostering transnational collaboration and civic engagement. Supported by young French people, the project serves as a bridge to build an inclusive Europe, while preparing the future generation to participate actively in European democratic life.
