On 16 June, Young Mediterranean Voices and European Parliament’s Young Political Leaders will exchange on economic, political and social issues with EU high-level representatives: HR/VP Mr. Josep Borrell, Vice-President of the European Parliament Mr. Fabio Massimo Castaldo, and Director-General of External Policies of the Union and Director for Democracy Support Mr. Pietro Ducci.

The high-level exchange will create a platform for constructive dialogue between decision-makers and youth from the Euro-Med region and the EU’s Neighbourhood countries, during the urgent times of COVID-19 crisis.

Young Mediterranean voices is the flagship debate and Dialogue programme connecting civil society, education and policy-makers across the southern Mediterranean and Europe. The programme provides a pioneering platform to open doors for young influencers to shape policy and media narratives. It is grounded on the positive experience of Young Arab Voices launched in 2011 by the Anna Lindh Foundation and British Council and it benefits from the support of the European Union.
