This project has been submitted to the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency of the European Commission for its evaluation, in the framework of the Youth in Action programme. The project europe@you.th pretends to increase youth voters’ turnout in the next European Parliament elections. This, however, requires that the different groups of young people, between 18 and 30 years, become aware of the importance of their votes for the definition of the EU policies. Toward this end, it is necessary to impart knowledge of the values and institutions of the European Union, with a gender perspective, and taking into consideration the cultural and linguistic dimension of the Spanish Autonomous Communities.

A team structured in three levels would execute the project: a Scientific Committee, composed of reputable professionals, a Work Team consisting of professional juniors, and a Dissemination Team, where a great number of young people, not only Spanish but also foreigners, classified by Autonomous Communities, will collaborate with each other. Significant Non Governmental Organizations (FCACU, ANUE, AUDESCO) and local entities (RECE, City Council of Barcelona) would provide their support and their own networks to the project.

During its execution, the project would use the new communication technologies (with “chain” communication campaigns: YouTube, Messenger, e-marketing) together with traditional media (radio, TV, direct marketing, street marketing, flyers, posters, leaflets, etc.) and would carry out seminars for their later broadcasting. The website of the project would develop synergies with the rest of activities and allow permanent communication between the people involved.
