General Information

National Youth Platform consisted of 50 organizations. It is administrated by an 11 person Executive Committee, which is supported currently by a Secretariat of 2 people. It is part of the European Youth Forum and has a leading role in the South Youth Councils Coordination. The budget is coming from the funding of international and national projects (Institutions and Ministries). Exchanges have been organized the last years with Turkish youth and many seminars and conferences with European youngsters. Lately we developed a Network of Young Scientists hoping that it will represent all the young scientists and will help them in networking and empowering themselves.

Mission and Objectives

Our main mission is to represent Greek Youth inside the Greek state and abroad. The coordination of our members to work collectively and the increase of awareness about diversity, are some of our priorities. Increase the involvement of young people in public life and create institutions that young people can participate. Protection of democracy, human rights and social solidarity are our objectives plus to fight any kind of discrimination, no matter where it is coming from.
