The European Youth Parliament is a peer-to-peer educational programme that brings together young people from across Europe to debate the pressing issues of our time. Our mission is to inspire and empower young Europeans to be open-minded, tolerant and active citizens.
We provide a forum for young people to develop and express their opinions on European political and social issues in an open and welcoming environment.
We support intercultural understanding and peacebuilding by bringing young Europeans with different backgrounds closer together to share ideas, opinions and practices.
We present young people across Europe with diverse opportunities for personal growth and skills development through non-formal and peer-led educational activities.
We create a network of the next generation of diverse, young changemakers, equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to positively shape the world around them.
This years Regional Sessions of EYP Norway will take place in February. This year they will be held digitally, due to Covid-19. These will be the first digital sessions of EYP Norway. Their shared vision encompasses many of the key elements EYP Norway focus on as an organisation.
