TUNE network is conducting advocacy training in Brussels to empower and engage young Europeans for the European elections. The training for the next European Parliament elections aims to activate young people in EU electoral democracy. The three-day advocacy training gathers young people from all the member countries and they will learn the art of advocacy and debate, encouraging them to actively participate in the political process.
A total of 18 young people participate. The network will try to engage, European decision-makers to take part in this training enhancing the impact and dissemination of the activity. Prior to the advocacy event, a pre-campaign will be launched to encourage young people to share their questions, concerns, and recommendations for fostering an inclusive European democracy through a linked platform. These inputs will then be collected, conceptualized, and discussed during the training sessions with European decision-makers.
The training started with information about the program, ice breaking, discussion about policy and the Council of the European Union, youth policies in participating countries and common policies between countries.
