The Dialogue will be held in the margins of the EU-Western Balkans Summit and as a side event of the Youth Forum of the Berlin Process , organised by the Regional Youth Cooperation Office.
The Dialogue brings together 25 young, engaged and diverse individuals from EU Member States, the Western Balkans and other like-minded European countries. These young people will have an opportunity to discuss the EU's geopolitical leadership in the context of EU enlargement, the role of youth in peace and reconciliation, and the fight against foreign information manipulation and interference (FIMI).
Two participants at the Dialogue come from FPI supported projects - Emilia Luiro from the EU-Artic Youth Forum and Will Wale from the Youth Advisory Committee in the UK. With this Youth Policy Dialogue, the European Commission continues to promote young voices in conversations around EU foreign policy.
