Last week, almost 20 people came to Brussels to attend the first European Youth Seminar "Migration, Free Movement and Refugees: when dreams face death by drowning". It was organised by 1993 President of AEGEE-Europe Pavel Cernoch, who came afterwards to visit the house.
Two weeks ago, the Y Vote Project team came to the house for their first live meeting. Among many cool ideas and plans, they also visited other organisations such as the European Youth Forum (YFJ).

The European Parliament voted against the possibility to have trans-European lists for the elections in 2019. AEGEE wants to express our disappointment regarding this decision, which is a lost opportunity that means a step backwards for the European integration.
