EYCA launches a survey to gather young people's input on the future of Europe

The European Youth Card Association (EYCA) is happy to announce the launch of its survey and research project as part of the #StandForSomething campaign. The first pan-European research the Association has carried out since its creation in 1987.

Over the next months, young Europeans from across the continent and beyond are invited to contribute to the survey and have their say on the Future of Europe.

The research, funded by the European Parliament, is conducted by EYCA in partnership with it's member organisations and will feed into the Conference on the Future of Europe. Results will be used to advocate for more youth-friendly policies at the European and national levels.

The survey will be open until 31 August, 2021 and is targeted to 16–30-year-olds. All respondents will be able to get a free special edition of the European Youth Card, with 37.000 discounts throughout Europe. They will also have the chance to win amazing trips across Europe in our social media competitions. Follow our accounts @standforsomething.eu and stay tuned for when the competitions drop this summer.

#StandForSomething is a youth-led campaign with citizens’ outreach events being held across 16 European countries. At its core are 21 Youth Activists, each driven to gather the views of their peers and bolster youth-involvement in the Future of Europe Conference. The ideas gathered by these young volunteers during their outreach activities will also be included in the research and be fed into the Future of Europe Conference.
