EUYOUTHRISE NETWORK

forthcoming

EUYOUTHRISE (Empower • Unite • Youth • Organisations • Understanding • Transnational • Hope • Resilience • Inclusion • Solidarity • Engagement Network) This project, coordinated by Amigos de Europa, a youth-focused NGO based in rural Andalusia, Spain, aims to empower marginalized young people across Europe—especially those from rural and underserved communities—by strengthening youth participation, civil society cooperation, and transnational engagement. The project focuses on five main objectives: Expanding access to European opportunities for rural youth. Strengthening cooperation among youth organizations across Europe. Promoting youth civic engagement and democratic participation. Raising awareness of inclusion, diversity, and EU youth policies. Providing technical support to local organizations for EU programme access. Key activities include training workshops, policy dialogues, youth forums, media campaigns, and innovative tools like a youth-led digital journalism platform and a participatory research initiative on democratic participation barriers. The project also includes regular monitoring, evaluation, and a strong communication strategy to ensure visibility and impact at local and EU levels. The multi-year action plan is framed within the EU Youth Strategy (2019–2027) and aligns with Erasmus+ and other European values-based frameworks. It emphasizes youth empowerment, inclusion, and strategic partnerships to drive systemic change and foster a vibrant, interconnected youth civil society network across Europe.
