I am very happy that you want to be present to discuss and develop your ideas at the European Youth Event – EYE. Today we are in urgent need of new ideas for Europe. The European Union faces big- ger challenges than ever: the refugee crisis, increasing nationalism, the economic and monetary union that still needs to be finished, a possible exit of the UK from the EU EUROPEANand thePARLIAMENT danger from terrorism are only some of the most pressing problems. STRASBOURG 20-21 MAYIt would 2016 be dangerous to think that there are no alternatives to the EU. There is one. It is a Europe of nationalisms, of borders and walls, a Europe of antagonism and egoism. A Europe of less prosperity, less security, less freedom and less cooperation. And now we have come dangerously close to this alternative, as for the first time in history the failure of this grand idea and incomparable success story is unfortunately a realistic scenario. Everyone who puts our common project in jeopardy puts in jeopardy the future of co- ming generations. It is thanks especially to young, active people like you that I believe in the future of Europe. With your contribution to a vibrant European democracy, you will make the difference in the future. This leaves me optimistic regarding the huge tasks ahead of us. So thank you very much for your interest in European politics and the European Parlia- ment – an exciting, multilingual, unique political institution. And the European Youth Event will be equally international and multilingual. My wish for you all is to have fun, hold interesting discussions, come up with many good ideas and enjoy your experience here in Strasbourg. Mr Martin Schulz, President of the European Parliament EYE2016 guide 5 TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE 2016 A CHANGE THE EUROPEAN 2016 YOUTH EVENT THE EUROPEAN YOUTH EVENT ProgrammeProgramme VERSION: 9 MARCH 2016 TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A CHANGE Dear participants, Thank you for accepting the European Parliament’s invitation to participate in the second edition of the European Youth Event (EYE). The EYE 2016 brings together young people from the 28 EU Member States and beyond in the European Parliament. It will be a unique opportunity for you to engage in workshops, debates and many other activities with your peers and with decision-makers. We want to listen to YOU! Your ideas will serve as a source of inspiration for Members of the European EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT Parliament and will be discussed in several parliamentary committees in the autumn. STRASBOURG 20-21 MAY 2016 The EYE 2016 aims to: - give you the opportunity to present and discuss ideas on how to make a change in Europe with fellow participants and with European decision-makers; - encourage discussion and debate on hot topics and future European policies; - give you an opportunity to stage cultural performances and showcase cultural diversity in Europe. On behalf of the European Parliament, we would like to thank our EYE partners and all the youth groups contributing to the event. You are all invited to get involved in the many indoor and outdoor activities on offer during the EYE 2016. We are looking forward to meeting you in Strasbourg.

  • Europa Stärken Heißt Deutschland Stärken! Deutschland Heißt Stärken Europa
    Europa stärken heißt Deutschland stärken! Deutschland heißt stärken Europa 1 2 Europa stärken heißt Deutschland stärken Die europäische Politik steht heute mehr denn je im Zentrum des öffentlichen Interesses in Deutschland. Die großen Herausforderungen unserer Zeit – die kriegeri- schen Konflikte in unseren Nachbarregionen, die Migra- tionsbewegungen und der Kampf gegen Islamismus und Terrorismus – lassen sich nicht mehr national lösen. Nur gemeinsam mit unseren europäischen Partnern können wir tragfähige Lösungen erarbeiten und die Errungenschaften der europäischen Einigung – Frieden, Freiheit, Sicherheit und wirtschaftlicher Wohlstand – erhalten. Das Auftreten populistischer, europafeindlicher Parteien und der von Großbritannien angestrebte Austritt aus der EU dürfen nicht darüber hinwegtäuschen, dass die überwältigende Mehrheit der Deutschen wie der Euro- päer von der Notwendigkeit der europäischen Einigung überzeugt ist. Dieses Vertrauen gilt es durch sachge- rechte politische Lösungen auf allen Ebenen zu stärken. Wir arbeiten daher nachhaltig für sichere EU-Außen- grenzen, eine dauerhafte Reduktion der Migrations- ströme nach Europa, eine stabile europäische Währung, solide Staatshaushalte, einen funktionierenden Binnen- markt, Wirtschaftswachstum und Arbeitsplätze, innere und äußere Sicherheit sowie die Bewahrung der Schöp- fung. All dies können wir nur gemeinsam mit unseren europäischen Partnern erreichen und dauerhaft sichern, im Interesse Deutschlands und Europas!

Je tiens à prendre position par rapport à ces sujets. 1. Protection de la biodiversité Je vous remercie de vos suggestions concernant le développement de la stratégie de l'UE en faveur de la biodiversité, que j'intégrerai volontiers dans mon travail. À mon avis, la biodiversité en particulier mérite d'être perçue encore davantage comme un enjeu transfrontalier, pour lequel il faut agir tant au niveau supranational qu'aux niveaux national, régional et local. Je partagerai vos suggestions également avec mon collègue Norbert Lins, qui est chargé de cette question au sein du groupe CDU/CSU au Parlement européen et qui suivra de près l'évolution de la stratégie de l'UE en faveur de la biodiversité mentionnée ci-dessus.

  • The Future of European Solidarity”
    Results of the 3rd Round of European HomeParliaments by Pulse of Europe: “The future of European solidarity” Status: 04.01.2021 Dear participants, dear politicians, Thanks to the support of EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and 30 ded- icated EU politicians, Pulse of Europe succeeded during this round of Euro- pean HomeParliaments in imple- menting innovations for the partic- ipation of citizens in EU politics. Pulse of Europe provides the first pan-European, scalable grassroots project for the participation of Euro- peans in EU policy decisions. It works both offline in a private environment and now also online via our Video HomeParliaments. Our mission is to create a per- manent, bottom-up format for engaging with EU policymakers. For the first time, late 2020 people from Ger- many, Austria, Italy, Luxembourg, Poland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Portugal, Spain, Bulgaria and France exchanged their expectations for the EU. In addition, numer- ous cross-border HomeParliaments con- tributed to a transnational European dialogue. About 700 Europeans participated in local HomeParliaments. Another 500 discussed the future of European solidarity via the new Video HomeParliaments. As in the first two rounds of the European HomeParliaments, the participants of the privately organized discussion rounds were enthusiastic about the constructive exchange, the mutual understanding and the insights gained from the structured Click on the picture to see the video discussions about the future of European solidarity.
