Democratic Participation in European Elections & European Youth Event (EYE)

2025-10-01

This initiative focused on empowering youth to actively participate in European democracy through targeted campaigns, workshops, and simulations of EU decision-making processes. During the European Youth Event (EYE), participants explored the European legislative framework, engaged in mock parliamentary sessions, and developed policy proposals on topics ranging from climate action to digital innovation. Workshops emphasized skills like critical thinking, debate, and advocacy, allowing participants to understand how their voices can shape policy outcomes.

In addition to practical exercises, the event included roundtable discussions with Members of the European Parliament, representatives from civil society, and policy experts. Participants exchanged ideas on increasing voter engagement, combating misinformation, and promoting inclusive participation. Collaborative group activities allowed youth to design campaigns and awareness initiatives aimed at increasing democratic engagement in their home countries, creating tangible outputs that can have real-world impact.

Aurora Europa functions as both an educational and motivational tool, offering performances that illuminate Europe’s democratic heritage and the ongoing struggle for civic rights. By connecting artistic experience with civic engagement, the symphony inspires young citizens to critically evaluate historical events and contemporary challenges while actively contributing to democratic discourse.
