Europe on Track 4
Europe on Track 4 (EOT4) was the 2017 edition of AEGEE’s youth-led European project, focused on civic education. During a month-long journey by train across more than 20 European cities, 6 young ambassadors, divided into 2 teams (red and blue) engaged with students and local communities to discuss democratic participation, active citizenship, and the role of young people in shaping Europe’s future. Through workshops, interviews, and public events, they created a space for dialogue and gathered youth perspectives on key societal challenges, sharing them across Europe.
