Join us in Prague for the third edition of the Youth Forum, exploring the stories, experiences and legacies of the Second World War, and their relevance to Europe today.
Over three days, young people from across Europe will come together to learn, exchange perspectives and reflect on how we engage with the past and its impact on our societies today.
Through interactive workshops, discussions, creative activities and visits to remembrance sites, participants of the Youth Forum will explore topics including democratic values, human rights, antisemitism, discrimination, and the choices people face in times of uncertainty and change. Participants will also have the opportunity to discover different approaches to remembrance and storytelling and to connect with other young people working with history and heritage.
The programme will include activities in Prague and at the Lidice Memorial, combining learning in a group setting with opportunities to reflect on historical places and stories.
The Youth Forum is part of the Youth Ambassadors Network and offers participants a space to share experiences, develop new skills and contribute their own perspectives to a growing European network of young people interested in the stories of the Second World War and their meaning today.
Please note: Participation in the programme and event-related costs (such as accommodation, meals and activities) will be covered. Participants are responsible for arranging and covering their own travel to and from the event location.
