The European Youth Foundation (EYF) is a fund established in 1972 by the Council of Europe to provide financial and educational support for European youth activities. Only youth NGOs from Council of Europe member states, as well as the European Cultural Convention Signatories: Belarus, Kazakhstan and the Holy See, can apply to the Foundation.
The European Youth Foundation is an instrument:
• to make the voice of youth heard at a top decision making level;
• managed by both youth non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and government representatives, who decide and monitor the CoE Youth programme;
• to support European non-governmental youth organisations and networks;
• to promote peace, understanding and respect.
