EU- public consultation on the future of youth policy
Strategic choices for young Europeans is the official name for the EU- public consultation on the future of youth policy launched on the 22nd of september.
The European Commission has launched an online public consultation on how the EU's youth policy should develop in the future. This year, the EU's Youth policy is celebrating its 20th anniversary, and this consultation will help the Commission to evaluate the achievements of European cooperation on youth policy since 2000. In the months to come, it will also lead to definition of fresh objectives for the next decade.
The consultation seeks to answer questions about the main challenges or opportunities which will have the most direct impact on young people. The questionnaire will cover issues regarding education and informal learning, employment, discrimination, social integration and voluntary activities of young people. The results of the consultation will be taken on board by the European policymakers in order to prepare concrete measures to help young people integrate into society, find work, improve their general well-being and get involved in society as citizens.
Internet consultation will be open until 25th of November.
The outcome of the consultation will be published on http://ec.europa.eu/youth
