Youth satisfaction with democracy is declining across many established democracies. But what does this really mean and what is behind the data?

This June, we are bringing together youth-led organizations from across Canada and the EU for the first time to collaboratively explore these questions. Drawing on cross-Atlantic experiences, community knowledge, and youth expertise, participants will work together to develop shared policy recommendations for strengthening democratic engagement. These recommendations will be shared with policymakers and will also help lay the groundwork for future collaboration and shared advocacy across the Atlantic.

Over the next two weeks, we will be spotlighting the youth organizations involved to highlight the important work they do. We invite you to follow along, learn from these organizations, and join us in recognizing youth-led organizations as essential partners in strengthening democracy.

Thank you to the delegation of European Union in Canada for supporting this work.

Russia loves to portray its military as “invincible.” Since 2014, Ukraine has exposed Russia to be more of a paper bear, and in recent months managed to stall its battlefield progress.

Discover three long running myths behind Russia’s “invincible” image:
Myth 1: Russia is an unstoppable military force
Myth 2: Russian firepower is so powerful and terrifying that fighting it is pointless
Myth 3: Ukraine and its allies have already lost the war

Over four years since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. What was meant to weaken Europe strengthened our unity. Ukraine stands firm. Europe stands with Ukraine. Russia’s aggression was a strategic miscalculation.and our support remains steadfast. The path to peace is clear: sustained pressure on Russia, sustained support for Ukraine.

Cela fait plus de quatre ans que la Russie a lancé son invasion à grande échelle de l’Ukraine. Ce qui visait à affaiblir l’Europe a renforcé notre unité. L’Ukraine tient bon. L’Europe se tient aux côtés de l’Ukraine. L’agression russe a été une erreur de calcul stratégique, et notre soutien reste inébranlable. La voie vers la paix est claire : une pression soutenue sur la Russie, un soutien soutenu à l’Ukraine.

Past EU-Canada Young Journalist Fellowship recipient Anna Desmarais reflects on her experience.

Selected in 2021, Anna shares her thoughts on the program: “The Canada-EU Young Journalism fellowship helped me realize that I have a place covering trans-Atlantic issues. Speaking directly to decision makers in Brussels and interacting with journalists doing the work helped me dream bigger for my own career, and even prompted a move! It's shaped a pivotal chapter in my personal and professional life. I'd encourage any young journalist to apply.”

Applications for the EU-Canada Young Journalist Fellowship are now open.
