Friends of Europe

Friends of Europe is a think tank which tries to bring people together by encouraging debate. FoE wants to stimulate change for a more inclusive, sustainable and forward looking Europe. It revolves around 6 policy areas which are: Future Europe, Smarter Europe, Greener Europe, Quality Europe, Global Europe and Security Europe.

The EYL40 Programme

The European Young Leaders programme is a multistakeholder initiative, which aims to promote a sense of European identity. It brings together the most promising European talents in initiatives that will shape Europe’s future. Every year, the EYL40 meet together with decision-makers, stakeholders and key European actors, to discuss issues of common concern and develop concrete proposals to tackle the challenges facing Europe and its citizens. The programme has facilitated the development of a strong network of committed Europeans.

Who can apply?

Friends of Europe is looking for high-profile leaders, with a European citizenship between the age of 30 an 40. The candidates should be creative, committed and passionate about reshaping the world.
