<strong>European</strong> <strong>Youth</strong> <strong>Parliament</strong> Ireland<br />

The National Committee of the <strong>European</strong><br />

EYP Ireland has been in existence for over 10 years. Since its foundation it has<br />

organised dozens of weekend-long sessions for secondary school students across<br />

Ireland, promoting awareness of <strong>European</strong> issues among young people.<br />

Last year, the <strong>European</strong> <strong>Youth</strong> <strong>Parliament</strong> Ireland reached over to 650 youngsters.<br />

This included running interactive workshops in schools on the theme of ‘<strong>Youth</strong><br />
