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.
