This year’s edition will focus on how to inform young voters on European Elections.
Young journalists, citizens or residents in an EU Member State, will experience three days of media workshops, political discussions, hands-on media production and invaluable insights into the European Parliament and international media milieu. They will get the chance to interact with high-level European politicians, professional journalists and experts and engage in intercultural exchange through practical media production. Over the course of the three-day workshop, each young journalist will work to produce a report on the topic of the seminar through their medium of choice: video, photo, radio, print, multimedia or new media.
The European Parliament will reimburse participants’ travel costs, and reimburse up to 360 Euros lump sum to working journalists to cover accommodation, meals and local transport.
The young journalists chosen to participate will have to arrange their own accommodation and travel and provide the necessary documents to the European Parliament for reimbursement.
European Youth Press (EYP) is a network of youth media organisations in Europe. It works to build a society where empowered young media makers are actively participating and contributing to the public sphere by creating fair, independent and responsible media, fostering the development of democracy,...
