MEDITERRANEAN YOUTH COUNCIL

The Mediterranean Youth Council is an assembly of 40 young Mediterraneans committed to defend the voice of the Mediterranean youth.

It is made up of young and dynamic people from all over the Mediterranean region, from Kosovo to Cyprus, Lebanon, Palestine, Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, Egypt, Spain, Italy and France.

“For us, the Mediterranean Youth Council is an opportunity to make our ideas heard, to pass on messages through common actions but also to engage in a dialogue with local, regional and national authorities in our respective countries.”

José Juan, MYC co-president

The MYC was officially installed on February 7th as part of the Forum for the Mediterranean Worlds which took place in Marseille on February 7th and 8th 2022.

The transversal issue chosen by the members for 2022 is : “Building tomorrow : Youth preparation for the future”.

What’s next?

Every two months, we organize a plenary meeting in order to gather all our members, to plan future actions and to exchange around common issues.
