The voice of young migrants matters
Young migrants are not only witnesses to the evolving dynamics of migration and integration but are also active participants in shaping the future of the EU.
Their experiences and aspirations offer unique insight to the challenges and opportunities that this diverse and growing community faces.
Consulting EUTH is an AMIF-funded project with a consortium made up of 14 partners, including local municipalities and governments, universities and NGOs from Spain, Italy, Greece, France, Malta, Sweden, Belgium and Cyprus.

Joint Position Paper
About the authors
We are a group of young experts in different sectors, based in the EU and with a migration background. As such, either directly or through our family history, we have experienced many of the issues raised in this position paper. We understand the struggles and the needs it outlines, especially those of young people, and make several recommendations that could significantly improve the functioning of relevant systems. We have also been directly trained and mentored to write position papers and engage with policy-makers.
Thematic papers
The EU Consultative Group of Young Migrants organised their work in thematic working groups that each produced a paper focusing on one specific topic.
