As the European Youth Event (EYE2020) is postponed due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the European Parliament has launched a special online edition of the event, with different activities organised in digital format.

EYE Online offers young people from all over the European Union and beyond a unique opportunity to virtually meet and inspire each other, share their stories and exchange their views with experts, decision-makers, activists and influencers.
The programme will run until the end of May 2020.

EYE Online will also address young people’s concerns about the actions and role of the European Union in the context of COVID-19 crisis, echoing a strong civic responsibility message to young Europeans as part of the #EuropeansAgainstCovid19 campaign.

Activities will focus on several topics, including:

Mental health
Future of education
Food of tomorrow and rural renewal
Fake news
Slow shopping
Future of work
Mass surveillance
Vaccination

The activities will be live streamed on the European Youth Event social media channels and on the Facebook event page, please check the programme here.
