Groups (European Parliament)
We are lobbying and following the Youth Intergroup in the European Parliament, together with our partners in the European Youth Forum. The Youth Integroup gives us the possibility to directly have the concerns of Europe's Youth raised in the European Parliament through MEPs and other decision-makers. We are following the Conference on the Future of Europe and the work of the informal Spinelli Group of MEPs.

JEF lobbies for the creation of a democratic European federation, for a more democratic, legitimate, transparent and efficient European Union, a greater inclusion of European citizens in the decision-making process of the EU and the promotion of peace, democracy, human rights and basic freedoms in Europe and worldwide.
To these ends, JEF concentrates its lobbying activities in the following three fields: I. Federal Philosophy and Principles, II. Federal Institutions and III. Federal Policies. On the basis of its own policies, JEF communicates its solutions in these three fields towards both public and private organisations in response to the Citizens’ concerns regarding the world’s environmental, economic, social and security challenges. JEF demonstrates in its advocacy work why we need a stronger Europe and how this Europe can be built.
