Young MP Erasmus programme Would you like to gain an insider view on the workings of the European Parliament? Would you like to get to know your European counterparts better? Extend your European political network? Experience for yourself how legislation is drafted before it reaches the national Parliaments? Would you like to share your experience and the issues that concern you with your European colleagues?
Then the EPP Young MP Erasmus Programme is just the thing for you!
What is it? The EPP Young Members Network (YMN) organises a one week exchange programme for young MPs who are members of an EPP sister-party from a national Parliament. It is a unique experience that helps reinforce the links between Members of national Parliaments and Members of the European Parliament. How does it work? You are invited to move to Brussels for one week. There you will follow a young MEP colleague in his/her work, gain an in-depth understanding of European dossiers that match the topics you are working on, meet with influencers, decision-makers, voters and journalists and participate in any meetings that are relevant to your work. The EPP Group’s Young Members Network will cover your accommodation and travel costs. The dates available are:
