Last week, we had the opportunity to welcome members of EDYN in Strasbourg. Here, members had the opportunity to meet with senior officials from the European Parliament and representatives of the European People's Party to discuss the challenges facing young people in the Eastern Partnership countries, the enlargement of the EU to include the Western Balkans, the role of youth participation in EU and non-EU policies, and the need for stronger youth representation in EU policymaking and decision-making. Supporting young and aspiring politically interested people is one of the main goals of the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung. We are very happy to have worked with a well-organized and ambitious organization and its members. We would like to thank Rainer Wieland, Lidia Pereira, Michael Gahler and Karlo Ressler and Andrius Kubilius for having us.
