Under the theme “Reviving European Ideals”, the conference of the European Youth Parliament in Luxembourg will bring together 130 young participants from 13 European countries, including local youth from Luxembourg. The theme highlights the impact events like this can have on participants, as well as on their direct and indirect environment. During five working days, the event will create a unique parliamentary simulation for the young delegates to work together, learn from each other, and experience parliamentary democracy first hand. It will offer them a unique experience to directly engage with decision-makers. The participants will divide into eight international working groups to discuss a current European topic and to draft a resolution by formulating their own ideas. They will also receive input and be in dialogue with experts and politicians during this process. The resolutions will then be debated in a General Assembly, according to the rules of the European Parliament. Additionally, the session will include a series of cultural events promoting inter cultural exchange and dialogue and celebrating Europe’s rich cultural diversity.By participating in Luxembourg 2016, the young participants will go through a non-formal as well as informal learning experience aimed at the promotion of European citizenship, active participation, democratic procedures and values and inter cultural dialogue. Within the project, we wish to encourage young people to actively participate in discussions currently on the political agenda as well as to learn new skills through working in international multi-cultural teams on challenging political topics.The event is an entirely youth driven project, organised by voluntary active young people aged between 16 and 22. A bigger group of sending partners select participants from 13 countries to Luxembourg.
