CBSS Youth Ministerial 2024

Young individuals aged 18 to 29 from the Baltic Sea Region will gather in Helsinki to engage in meaningful dialogue and contribute to policy development.

CBSS Youth Ministerial 2024 will take place in Helsinki, Finland on 22-24 May 2024. The event will focus on societal resilience and the role of young people in elections, especially the upcoming EU elections in June 2024.

Emphasising the commitment of the CBSS to engaging young people in the Baltic Sea Region’s political dialogue, the CBSS Youth Ministerial promises a dynamic platform for the next generation of leaders to address regional challenges and collaborate on potential solutions with experts.

A highlight of the Youth Ministerial 2024 will be the drafting of a position paper by the young participants, aimed for presentation at the upcoming CBSS Ministerial Session in Finland this June, attended by CBSS Foreign Ministers.

The event is organised by the Finnish Presidency of the CBSS, which, under its priorities, has notably recognised the importance of youth participation in society and regional policy-making.
