Reporting from the EYE2014
When the newly elected MEPs convene in July for the first time since the May elections, they will be presented with a report brimming with ideas and proposals from EYE2014. Young journalists from across Europe will be in charge of summarising the ideas and suggestions from the event.
Putting together ideas and visions from 55 workshops and more than 90 expert panels is not an easy task. However, young journalists from The European Youth Press, an umbrella association of 60,000 young journalists in Europe, will do it, as part of the annual European Youth Media Days which this year exceptionally takes place in Strasbourg.
They will closely follow the activities, interview speakers, take down the main ideas and suggestions, and finally draft a report, which summarises the five key themes of EYE2014: youth unemployment, digital revolution, sustainability, European values and the future of the EU.
The aim is to provide the newly elected MEPs with a clear idea about young people's concerns, dreams and future perspectives.
