Connecting Rural Youth with Europe

During ErasmusDays 2025, the CONNECT-R network — bringing together MFR institutions in France and youth organisations across Europe (including local action groups) — will host a series of local dialogue events dedicated to rural youth.

These events will focus on European Youth Goal #1: Connecting the EU with Youth.
Each participating structure will engage rural young people and ambassadors in interactive workshops to discuss the outcomes of the European Youth Conference under the Danish Presidency, share perspectives, and co-create the foundations of a rural youth advocacy strategy at the European level.

The local sessions will culminate in a virtual gathering of youth ambassadors from all partner countries, offering a unique space to exchange ideas, connect visions, and build a collective voice of rural youth for Europe.
