On 10 June, the Committee on Culture and Education has been at the forefront of the European Youth Event (EYE) 2023 in Strasbourg, involving young people in the session called "Engaged4YOUth - MEPs want to hear from you".

The CULT Committee Chair, Sabine Verheyen, together with CULT Members Joao Albuquerque, Marcos Ros Sempere and Milan Zver, engaged in conversation with over 100 young people to discuss key priority issues: education, unpaid and underpaid traineeships, mental health, demographics and voting age, Erasmus+, volunteering, and how MEPs can continue to bridge the gap between young people and policy makers, in order to bring youth policy concerns closer to EU decision making.
