Latvijas Jauniešu organizacija «Tellus»<br />

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

<strong>Youth</strong> <strong>Parliament</strong> in Latvia<br />

LYO «Tellus» was founded in 2004 and since then has organised 10 EYP sessions including one<br />

International Session in 2006. Tellus currently has two working groups - EYP Latvia and Training.<br />

EYP Latvia consists of approximately 20 members. A coordinator system has been implemented<br />

to give each member a field of responsibility. EYP Latvia is led by an elected individual who takes<br />

up the role of National Coordinator. Main priorities in <strong>2009</strong> included organising a successful<br />

National conference as well as developing contacts with teachers. Both priorities were fulfilled<br />

and now for 2010 we are aiming higher - if all goes well, by the end of 2010 EYP Latvia will have<br />

organised seven regional sessions, one forum and of course the annual National Conference. We<br />

are trying to reach out in the regions and will hopefully continue to make progress in 2010.<br />
