84th International Session of the European Youth Parliament

This session brought together 300 total strangers from 35 countries scattered through the whole of Europe, and the outcome was nothing short of extraordinary. We got to know people and the concept of EYP on a whole new level. People who are fervent debates full of knowledge, ideas and perspectives that left us mind-blown, but also friends that never failed to make us laugh and made us feel like family. Because that's what EYP is; a family growing bigger and stronger, embracing the whole of Europe. We are honoured to be part of this family that has shaped us as people. From team building, to committee work, all the way to the last two days of General Assembly, exhaustion wasn't enough to wear out the excitement we all shared and the emotional connections we developed.

The intellectual discussions, the constructive criticism, the thirst for understanding were few of the things that brought together a truly unique group of individuals for ten unforgettable days. We have already started planning reunions with these people we are proud to call friends.

Talk to us, Aris Messios, 6G, Dilara Sem*, 6B, myself or Ms Virginia Rengel Kefala, get involved and who knows, you might be next to leave your footprints as an EYPer all over Europe.
Despina Demetriadou, 6G.
