🌹 Europe4Youth | Insights from the extraordinary PES Group meeting in Florence and a call to join us in Brussels

 

Dear Young Elected Politicians,

To contribute to the European Year of Youth, the PES Group held its extraordinary Group meeting in Florence, Italy, on Friday 4 November 2022 to discuss a progressive vision for the future of young people in Europe.

Having PES Group members coming from across Europe and young Italian politicians at the table was key to ensure an inclusive debate on youth policy with those concerned: youth and local and regional policy-makers. Thank you for being part of it!

For those of you who missed the debate, you can check here the summary of the main political messages of the event.
