ABOUT Young Pride

In the last six years, did you participate in the Youth in Action Programme? Maybe it was a Youth Exchange, a Youth Initiatives or a European Voluntary Service, perhaps you remember taking part in a Youth in Action Young People’s meeting…did you go abroad or do something in the UK?

How about the Lifelong Learning Programme, were you hosted as an Grundtvig assistant, took part in a Workshop or perhaps a Leonardo Da Vinci mobility activity?

If so, we want to meet you, to share your experiences, celebrate your achievements and investigate ways to capitalise on your experiences. Maybe hearing about what other people did will inspire you to undertake another similar experience.

What is it about ?

Young Pride is a National Youth Meeting which aims to bring together young people who were previous recipients of EU funded programmes (Youth In Action - EVS, Youth Exchange...- Lifelong Learning - Leonardo, Grundtvig etc).

The objectives is to:

• Share and evaluate past projects.
• Discover how you can capitalise on the international experience and see how you could use your news knowledge and skills in the future.
• Discuss the future of the programme to inform policy makers of direct youth recommendations relating to these two programmes.
• Offer participants future opportunities in international mobility.

The event will include a wide variety of activities such as plenary, video rooms, creative workshops in photography, music or arts to unpack participant’s experiences; as well as workshops such as a YOUTHPASS, Europass CV workshop and a Youth Initiatives workshop, etc.
