Communicating Europe Initiative

The Communicating Europe Initiative provides funding for projects intended to deepen the awareness of the role that the European Union Plays in our daily lives, and improve the quality and accessibility of public information on European Issues, at local, regional or national level.  

Utilising co-production and co-design methodologies Ballyhoura Development is working with young people to produce a series of video clips to promote youth Engagement with the European Union.  

The project aims to:

  • Promote the participation of young people in European politics.
  • Promote the mainstreaming of young people's perspectives across EU legislation and policy. 
  • Strengthen cooperation and relationships between young people and political representatives.
  • Support making EU politics more accessible to young people.

The project places value on the direct life experience of young people and their valuable perception of the EU and will using a quality community development approach,  involve young people, politicians and policy makers from the outset in the co-design and co-production of videos for use online and on social media to promote the engagement of young people in politics and democracy.
