Europe En Vacances

The “Les Jeunes Européens – France” association is organising a major summer campaign to raise awareness of European citizenship in July and August 2018 dubbed “Europe en Vacances”. It is aimed at all tourists and locals present on the French coast, with a particular focus on young people. The aim of this campaign is to encourage holidaymakers to vote in the 2019 European elections via educational activities and games for young and old. This project started from the following observation: European elections are often only covered just before the election by political parties and the media. These elections, which are somewhat relegated to the background, are nevertheless crucial for advancing the European Union and making it more democratic. This project is part of the “Europe par les Jeunes” (Europe by young people) educational programme created in 1999 and whose development was funded by the Hippocrene Foundation along with the diversification of target groups.
