Teaser :
Ministers responsible for Youth from 49 participating states of the European Cultural Convention have adopted October 11 in Kyiv a Declaration of the Youth Policy Development of the Council of Europe. The declaration became a final document of the 8th European Conference of Youth Ministers entitled "The Future of the Council of Europe Youth Policy: Agenda 2020".

News :

The instrument adopted particularly envisages a strategy of the development of the Council of Europe youth policy and action plan in three directions: human rights and democracy, youth co-existence in various societies and young people's social inclusion.

Ukraine's Minister for Family, Youth and Sports Yuriy Pavlenko appreciated the forum outcome. "The Declaration we have adopted will surely become an excellent thesaurus of the Council of Europe youth policy achievements. We have plenty of time to put it into practice both at the national and European levels. I am sure with common efforts we will fulfill this task as Europe's future belongs to youth," he underscored.

The next youth ministerial conference will be held in 2012.

The text of this declaration can be download from the EKCYP library :
