Youth in Action supports youth projects with an European dimension. It aims to inspire a sense of active citizenship, solidarity and tolerance among young Europeans. Ycity 2009 applied Youth in Action, because the project’s objectives are to stimulate an active participation among youth and create transnational communities. 

The programme is divided into different actions, and Ycity applied the action for Youth Democracy Projects (action 1.3). Team Ycity handed in the application 1st of Februray and expects an answer in the middle of April.

Every youth can apply Youth in Action – both organizations and informal groups.  See the EU Commission’s Youth website and CIRIUS’ website about Youth in Action (the Danish Agency for Youth in Action).
