EU's Youth Day Celebrations in August! 
 
European Commission Representation in Cyprus drew attention to issues and EU funded opportunities for youth in the Turkish Cypriot community during events organised by EU Infopoint for International Youth Day in August.
The Youth Day events which took place on 27 September at Narnia and on 28 September at Merit Hotel attracted many young people who had the opportunity to receive information about youth related issues and EU funded opportunities. The events brought together EU experts, European Commision representatives, a Swedish Embassy representative, local authorities and chambers and decision makers in the northern part of Cyprus.
