Europe for a Change II

From October 2005 to April 2006, thousands of young people told us about their priorities for the future of Europe. We also asked young people to vote for their No. 1 most important value for the future of Europe. Here are the results of the Europe for a Change II youth jury:

   1. Peace (3,133 votes)
   2. Freedom (1,949 votes)
   3. Education (734 votes)
   4. Same Possibilities (538 votes)
   5. Communication (532 votes)
   6. Different Cultures (326 votes)
   7. Mobility (165 votes)

Europe for a Change: HOW WAS IT FOR YOU...?
Has life changed for young people in Europe since the accession of 10 new states to the EU on 01 May, 2004? Have their hopes and dreams for an enlarged EU come true? And how do young Europeans view the future of their Europe? These and other questions have been answered by the EURO<26 project ‘Europe for a Change’ II online at: www.change-europe.org

The Campaign
Together with the 27 young people, EYCA has created Europe for a Change II campaign material: short television documentaries, print layouts, video/audio files of the young people’s statements, a viral clip and a new website. The campaign reached over 25 million contacts in Europe.
