ECI Ambassador spotlight: Meet the European Youth Parliament Austria

Over the summer, several new ECI Ambassadors joined our network. We asked the European Youth Parliament (EYP) in Austria to share more about their work and why they help promote the ECI.

“EYP Austria is dedicated to empowering young people to become active and engaged citizens within Europe. Our goal is to foster a sense of European identity and encourage youth participation in democratic processes. The ECI aligns perfectly with our mission by providing a tangible tool for citizens to directly influence EU policy. We have integrated information about the ECI into our events and workshops and we share updates, success stories, and calls to action on our social media. We've developed user-friendly materials and interactive sessions that demystify the ECI process. Being an ECI Ambassador allows us to further embody our commitment to empowering young people to become informed and engaged citizens.”

You can meet EYP Austria and Europe Direct Carinthia, who are also ECI Ambassadors, in person at the Vienna Book Fair, 20-24 November.

Meet all the ECI Ambassadors.
