The Baltic Youth Exchange brings together young people from the Baltic Sea Region to work on a (political) topic relevant to young people.
It intends to give young people in the Baltic Sea region (BSR) a platform on which they can exchange experiences and information on a (political) topic in their own country, Germany and Europe. It also aims to promote intercultural learning and solidarity between people of different backgrounds.
Participants deal with the current challenges Europe is facing. These include educational issues, the debt and economical crisis, the refugee situation and again upcoming nationalism. They work out the situation in the participating countries and discuss where Europe is heading.
In addition intercultural exchange is an objective of the Baltic Youth Exchange. By meeting young people from the Baltic Sea region understanding, tolerance and the idea of a European identity should be promoted.
