About
It all started with the political cooperation which became
Euroregion Baltic (ERB) in 1998. It includes 8 regions around the
South Baltic Sea from 5 countries. For about two years ago it was
decided to also include young people in the cooperation, and Youth
Board was created. The young representatives are members of the ERB
Council and the chairperson from Youth Board is a member in the ERB
Executive Board. This way Youth Board is very special, they have
the same possibilities as the rest of the members in ERB to
influence the agenda.
The difficult part for the Youth Board members is to make
something out of this opportunity since they are participating on
their spare time. They also need other young voices to bring
forward. This is why the project Yc3 was created.
Yc3 makes it possible for the Youth Board members to
participate and influence in the structures of ERB. The project is
also creating a platform for other young people and organisations
to give their opinions on different subjects. This will hopefully
also lead to new cooperations and fruitful connections between
young people in the south Baltic Sea area.
