The European Youth Parliament (EYP) is an educational organisation which brings together young people from all over Europe to discuss current topics in a parliamentary setting. EYP is present in 39 European countries and organises almost 500 events every year, involving nearly 28.000 participants.

Since it was created in 1987,  thousands of young people have taken part in regional, national and international sessions, whwere they have formed friendships and made international contacts. The EYP has thus made a vital contribution towards European unity and bridging gaps between cultures.

Today it is one of the largest European platforms for political debate, intercultural encounters, European civic education and the exchange of ideas among young people in Europe.
