What makes YPNE unique?

YPNE is an open, non-partisan platform that links local and regional youth parliaments across Europe. We connect peers, welcome newcomers, and share tools so ideas turn into real action at home. From Bavaria, we make cross-border project transfer easy, inclusive, and long-term-measured by partnerships that last and solutions that travel.

Who is your target group?

Local and regional youth parliaments – self-organized bodies of representatives chosen by young people – and similar youth representations across Europe

Are there any language requirements?

Yes – English is our working language. We use simple, inclusive formats and provide multilingual resources where possible. No certificates needed; basic conversational English is enough, and we support non-native speakers.

What will my participation look like?

You join an open, non-partisan platform: connect with youth parliaments across Europe, take part in guided networking, co-create solutions in small groups, and exchange tried-and-tested tools you can transfer at home. We mix online meetups with in-person sessions, use simple, inclusive formats, and give follow-up support so your ideas turn into real impact in your youth parliament.

Can I get in touch with the team or other participants beforehand?

Yes, absolutely! Reach us via info@ypne.eu, our website, or our social media. We’re happy to hear from you and will get back to you as soon as possible. After registration, you may also receive invites to optional pre-event online meetups to connect with other participants.
