Join the Baltic Sea Parliamentary Youth Forum 2024 in Helsingør, Denmark
Register now for the Baltic Sea Parliamentary Youth Forum 2024 and take an active role in addressing pressing issues such as resilience, energy security, and climate change. Young innovators and active minds from the Baltic Sea Region, aged 18 to 29, are invited to apply for this all-expenses-paid experience in the parliamentary world.
To promote youth engagement in regional parliamentary work, the CBSS, in partnership with the Danish delegation to the Baltic Sea Parliamentary Conference (BSPC), has opened registration for the Baltic Sea Parliamentary Youth Forum 2024 (BSPYF). This event is set to be hosted in the picturesque coastal city of Helsingør, Denmark, from 24 to 27 August 2024.
Participation is open to individuals aged 18 to 29 who reside in or hold the nationality of any CBSS Member State. Travel and accommodation expenses will be covered by the organisers.
The forum is specifically seeking about 25 young participants who are active in local, national, or regional initiatives or organisations and are capable of contributing innovative and impactful ideas for improving the future of the Baltic Sea Region (BSR).
This year’s forum will address critical topics such as resilience, energy security, and climate change, providing a unique platform for future policymakers and region builders to engage in discussions, foster networks, and collaboratively develop concrete recommendations.
The youth recommendations developed during the BSPYF will be presented to parliamentarians from the region during the subsequent 33rd Annual Baltic Sea Parliamentary Conference (BSPC). For several years, the BSPC has traditionally invited young people to its annual conference.
Prospective forum participants are invited to submit their applications and proposals for recommendations until 24 April 2024.
Prior to the event, an initial online meeting will be convened for the selected participants, offering them an opportunity to familiarise themselves with each other, initiate discussions, and receive information from the organisers. Additional online sessions are planned to aid participants in refining and consolidating their recommendations.
