Since its inauguration, many tens of thousands of young people have taken part in regional, national and international sessions, formed friendships and made international contacts across and beyond borders.

The EYP has thus made a vital contribution towards uniting Europe.

Today the EYP is one of the largest European platforms for political debate, intercultural encounters, political educational work and the exchange of ideas among young people in Europe. The EYP consists of a network of 36 European associations and organizations in which thousands of young people are active in a voluntary capacity. The entire network organizes about 200 events every year.

Firstly the participants divide into committees and take part in team building.  In the ensuing committees the young delegates start working on a current issue of European politics and compose a joint resolution.  Finally, the resolutions are debated in a parliamentary General Assembly following the model of the European Parliament in both English and French.

Through a rich cultural programme with events such as EuroConcert, EuroVillage or the Country Presentations, the participants become active and creative, expressing themselves by performing music, acting and dance
