During the past weekend, the Board of National Committees, the international assembly consisting of all national organisations of the European Youth Parliament met in Berlin. 68 participants from 35 national committees were present and several key decisions on the development of the network were taken during the meeting.

The European Youth Parliament is an organisation by young people for young people. Our international board – the Governing Body (GB)  – directs the organisation and is responsible for the strategic development of the EYP. The board consists of six elected members and a representative of the Schwarzkopf Foundation, as our umbrella organisation.

We are now looking for new members to join our board, starting from January 2016.

If you are interested in running or nominating someone you know, please find all the necessary information on the GB Election page.

The European Youth Parliament is launching an EYP Member Survey, designed to give us a better understanding of which young people we are currently reaching with our work. With a clearer vision of their backgrounds, we believe EYP will be able to evaluate our current state of inclusion and then make improvements in this field.
