Beyond Borders – Europe of Youth

On 26th May 2019 the European elections will take place!

What do young people expect from it? How do they envisage an open and sustainable Europe?

28 young people from Germany, Romania, Slovakia and Poland are sailing on board of “Lovis” along the German, Swedish and Polish Baltic Sea coasts at the beginning of May 2019 – looking for answers! On board we develop future ideas and demands for a youth-friendly Europe. We invite you to get in touch with us: at 3 inspiring events, on 3 themes in 3 port cities!
