Euroregional Youth Assembly (EYA)

EYA's words

Aged between 17 and 29 and coming from the Balearic Islands, Catalonia and Occitania, we have been selected to form the first Euroregional Youth Assembly. Since our first meeting on 9 and 10 February 2023 in Toulouse, we have been meeting remotely on a monthly basis to prepare our proposals to the Euroregion on various topics: environment, sustainable development and responsible economy, languages/cultures, inclusion and social rights, but also gender equality.

Our first goal?

Develop a communication plan for young people in our regions! Motivated and united by the will to act, we have eighteen months to show that youth is resourceful.
