The “Alliance for Youth Vote” action plan is the the basis for the coordination of
European and National youth-led organisations for the coming
European Parliament elections in 2024.
Purpose of the Alliance for Youth Vote
From the previous experience in campaigning all the partners have unanimously agreed that, with joined forces, the youth organisations will be able to reach out to a bigger number of young people. The informal civil society alliance with external partners and other youth organisations for the European
Parliament elections in 2024 will work together with other civil society organisations, youth organisations and policy makers to encourage youth participation in democratic elections:
√ To offer space for networking among youth organisations and exchange good practices on educational and communication actions
√ To prepare an action plan of how youth organisations in partnership can reach out to as many first time voters as possible for European Parliament elections in 2024.
The informal alliance will also directly approach the Youth Outreach Unit of the European Parliament and invite them to also participate in the co-creation of the campaigns and approach with involving young people in each of the steps. The first meeting of the potential youth organisations (and other relevant civil society organisations) for the alliance will happen during the final conference of the project. At this meeting, invitees will work on the plan of collaboration and towards an action plan. With this activity the partners will ensure that the outputs of this project will extend beyond the project timeframe of 2 years.
Long terms effects
The development of an informal alliance of civil society and youth organisations will work together with policy makers on youth participation in democratic elections and other connected processes. This network will remain active after the end of the project and have a positive impact when reaching out to youth for elections, as the wide variety of civil society organisations in the network will include political youth organisations as well as non-political organisations. Therefore, a huge audience will be addressed. This informal group will join other existing initiatives with diverse audiences and supporters promoting the strengthening of European civic education, in view of the next European elections.
