A whole host of exciting project weeks held last autumn and this spring have involved some 850 young people in no less than 18 European countries! They have formed parties and developed new, creative and innovative ideas for Europe's energy future. They have debated with local, national and international politicians and decision-makers - and it has been an exciting experience for students, teachers and the implementing partners:

"Young Ideas for Europe was special as it not only let our voices be heard, but also made it feel that our opinions mattered."

- Valter, participant, Sweden

"The project… allows young people from all over Europe to realize that certain issues are important to all of them no matter what country they come from."

 - Maria, teacher, Poland

"This project allowed young participants to become aware of current issues but also of their role as citizens."

 - Alina, project partner, France
