You_R_EU: Youth Recommendations for the EU
This EU project aims at engaging with young people on pressing regional issues and regional cooperation. Through social media, communication campaigns, surveys and consultation workshops, the IDM will collect and analyse their views, opinions and suggestions towards the next Cohesion Policy and in particular the future Interreg/territorial cooperation post-2027. Moreover, using the same digital tools, the project will raise awareness among young people about the EU and the various facets of interregional cooperation. Based on the findings, the IDM will develop ten policy recommendations.
