You(th) and the 2024 European elections

A survey for young European citizens to understand their real interest in European issues and to get to know their needs in depth with the idea that they might become part of the European political agenda. With this objective, the Erasmus+ national agency INDIRE, within the PEACE project, acronym for Participation Erasmus Alumni for Civic Engagement, launches an important international research through the questionnaire You(th) and the 2024 European elections, in the occasion of the next elections for the European Parliament, scheduled from 6 to 9 June, 2024.

The short survey addresses young Europeans aged 16 to 35 years old to understand their point of view. Participation is voluntary and completely anonymous and will take only 8-10 minutes. It will remain available until 10 June 2024.

The key points of the questionnaire are youth issues, such as problems with housing, youth unemployment and precarity on the job market, as well as the rising costs of living. In general, the survey also wants to understand what young people think about the European elections and the European Union.

The questionnaire, in English, was developed by Paul Blokker, professor of Political Sociology at Alma Mater Studiorum, University of Bologna, together with a pool of researchers. The results of the survey will be part of the next report dedicated to the civic participation of young people, published within the PEACE project.

PEACE is a long-term cooperation activity dedicated to Civic Participation (a transversal priority of the Programme). It aims at enhancing civic engagement in young people in Europe, and more generally of participants in the Erasmus+ program. PEACE is a project coordinated by the Erasmus+ Agency INDIRE in cooperation with the National Agencies of 11 countries (France, Spain, Luxembourg, Germany, Belgium, Romania, Portugal, Sweden, Latvia, Ireland and the Czechia).
