Euro-Mediterranean Youth Platform Invitation

After a long period of absence, the Euro-Med Youth Platform's magazine is finally back. The Magazine is one of the Platform's networking tools, working to raise awareness on what is being done in the youth sector in the Euro-Mediterranean region. This will be published by the end of November 2007. If you would like to receive a printed copy of this issue, please fill in the online subscription form here, even if you have already done so in the past: http://www. euromedp.org/en/mag.asp . The magazine will also be available online through our website www. euromedp.org .

Earlier in the year, the Euro-Mediterranean Youth Platform launched an initiative to encourage the establishment of National Youth Federations of NGO's in the Mediterranean. The main aim behind this National Youth Federation initiative is to build upon national capabilities in the Mediterranean, and to create networks of National Youth Federations where none already exist. The main thrust for the establishment of this Federation will come from the NGO's themselves, with the support of the Euro-Med Youth Platform.
From the 13th-16th December 2007, the Euro-Med Youth Platform will hold a meeting in Alexandria, Egypt for youth who demonstrate an interest in this initiative and can contribute positively to this process. During this meeting we shall be able to take stock of what has been achieved to date, what are the obstacles encountered, and how these networks can support each other. The meeting will be based on peer education with expert assistance. European youth councils, especially those who still conserve the memory of their creation because they are not old, will be invited to share their experience and resources.
Applications to participate in this meeting are now open, and you are invited to apply through the following link: http://www.euromedp .org/en/egypt.asp?lang=en . Please note that the deadline for applications is 20th November 2007.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you require any further information.
Kind regards,
