Five young people stand in a brightly lit indoor space, casually dressed with lanyards, smiling as if at an event like the Scottish Rural Islands Parliament. Other attendees and a wooden structure are blurred in the background.

European Rural Youth Parliament

What is the ERYP?

The European Rural Youth Parliament (ERYP) is a key part of the 6th ERP, where youth delegates will gather to strengthen relationships with one another and with decision-makers.

Here, youth participants will discuss the rural issues that matter most to them while showcasing youth- and community-led solutions.

This invitation-only event will be jointly designed and delivered by Scottish Rural Action and Rural Youth Europe, under the oversight of the new ERYP Advisory Board, comprised of twenty young people age 16 to 30 representing rural Scottish and European organisations and groups.

Also central to the event will be young people from the local Aberdeenshire host community, as well as CLLD Youth Local Action Groups and other co-curators of the biennial Scottish Rural & Islands Parliament.

Stay tuned for the ERYP programme to be released soon!

If you’d like to learn more about the ERYP, or if you have an idea, suggestion, or sponsorship opportunity to submit for consideration by the Advisory Board, please contact: mia@sra.scot
