Exciting Opportunity for Young Change-Makers! 
UxST Partnership Project - Policy Proposal Contest

We are thrilled to announce the launch of a policy proposal contest as part of our UxST partnership project at Development Perspectives. This initiative is aimed at young minds between the ages of 13-30 who are passionate about making a difference in their communities.

What we're looking for:
Form a team of young individuals (minimum 3, with at least 1 member over 18) to create a short policy proposal based on the EU's Youth Goals. Proposals can address critical issues such as youth employment, mental health, the environment, or inclusion.

Prizes:
The three best proposals, chosen by a panel of expert judges, will enter a public vote. The winning team will earn the incredible opportunity to send one of its members to Brussels, accompanied by a Development Perspectives staff member. In Brussels, winners from Spain, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, and Lithuania will present their proposals to EU decision-makers.

Deadline for Proposals:
January 22nd, 2024

More Information:
For details and questions, please feel free to reach out to Paul by email: paul@developmentperspectives.ie.

This is a unique chance for the youth you work with to be the voice of change and represent Ireland on a European stage! Encourage them to form a team, brainstorm ideas, and let's shape the future together. Don't let them miss out on this extraordinary opportunity!
