Young people aged between 16 and 30 from any EU Member States can submit projects for the European Charlemagne Youth Prize.
Projects can be submitted individually or, preferably, in groups. They should promote European and international understanding; foster the development of a shared sense of European identity and integration, and provide role models for young people living in Europe and offer practical examples of Europeans living together as one community.
WHAT TYPE OF PROJECT CAN WE SUBMIT?
Previous winners have been awarded for projects such as youth exchanges, events in the fields of sports, arts or culture or may take the form of online projects with a European dimension.
Since 2008, the European Parliament together with the ‘Foundation of the International Charlemagne Prize of Aachen’ has each year been inviting young people from all EU Member States to submit projects run by and for youth showing an active participation in the development of Europe.
The prize for the best project is €7500, the second €5000 and the third €2500. As part of the prize, the three European laureates are invited to visit the European Parliament in Brussels or Strasbourg.
One representative of each of the 28 national winners is invited to Aachen for several days to attend several events, including the Youth Prize Award Ceremony, which always takes place two days before Ascension Day, the day on which the prestigious International Charlemagne Prize of Aachen is awarded.
The prizes for the best three projects will be presented by the President of the European Parliament and representatives of the Foundation of the International Charlemagne Prize of Aachen.
Your project will also receive lots of coverage through the European Parliament’s and the Foundation’s media channels.
The prize
The Charlemagne Youth Prize, organized by the European Parliament and the International Charlemagne Prize Foundation in Aachen, is awarded each year to European projects by young people aged 16-30. The winning projects provide models for young people living in Europe and offer practical examples of Europeans living together as one community. UK projects will continue to be eligible.
The three winners will be chosen from the projects nominated by national juries and representatives from all countries will be invited to the award ceremony in Aachen in May 2019.
You can find details of the rules and discover how to apply to the Charlemagne youth prize website.
