For schools and educators

The European Youth Parliament is one of the most transformative non-formal educational projects your students can experience. Teachers regularly report favourably on the academic, political, social and emotional impacts participating has on their students’ educational and personal growth.

If you are a teacher, you can apply with your school to attend one of our Regional Selection Conferences. For this, you can follow our Instagram Page and stay tuned for the application, which comes out at the beginning of each school year.

Your role as an educator

Teachers play a vital role in supporting their students before, during and after EYP sessions. For instance, if national selection processes take place in your country, students will participate in a nation-wide competition to be able to take part in International Sessions of the EYP. Besides organisational matters, this can include assisting students with topic choices, overall preparedness as well as coaching on public speaking, voice projection and personal presence.
