In their own words

“Established in 2002, YES Forum is a European network of organisations from across Europe dedicated to supporting young people with fewer opportunities. Through fostering social inclusion and enhancing their professional skills, we strive to create better life prospects for them. At the same time, we support practitioners and give a voice to professionals working in the social work field.”

“YES Forum believes that that investing in disadvantaged young people reduces long-term societal costs and empowers them to become active citizens. YES Forum aims to influence relevant EU legislative, political, and funding processes while also supporting the member organisations to use policies and funding to benefit disadvantaged young people in the EU member states. Through advocacy, capacity-building projects, and cross-border cooperation, we work to ensure that EU policies effectively address the needs of marginalised youth.”
