| Faith in Europe |
 |
|

Do you have faith in Europe? |
| |
|
| |
One can divide the people’s of Europe in many ways – by age, by nationality, by religious affiliation – but which of us are the most enthusiastic Europeans? As the institutions that have kept peace and brought prosperity to most Europeans these last 60 years, fall to their lowest levels of popularity ever, the young people of the Peace Child network are undertaking a research project in every European Union member state to find out our different feelings about the future of Europe. |

“The way to measure excellence in youth participation with adults is the extent to which the young participants feel ownership of the project on which they are working and, equally, the extent to which the adult participants feel satisfied by the contribution made by the young people.” |
