Our goal is to equip young people with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to engage in democratic decision-making and take leadership in voicing needs and values. We also focus on EU security policies, a current top priority, to ensure open societies, resilient institutions, and public support for reforms that matter to young people. Objectives: To learn about decision-making processes and the role of civil-led efforts, particularly youth groups, in influencing them. To analyse and reflect on the functioning of the European Parliament, the Commission, and the Council in the policy-making process. To explore European security policies, examine current measures (digital security, information security, protection of democratic processes), and consider the role of youth in shaping them. To strengthen competences in leadership, advocacy, negotiation, teamwork, and intercultural communication. To empower young people to participate actively in a policy-making process on the European level
