It is a platform for dialogue between local governments, non-governmental organisations, science, culture and business. Thousands of people from over 40 countries have participated in the previous editions of the Congress.

The organisers invite young people and youth leaders from all over Europe to debate on the needs and desires of youth, about the role of local governments in shaping and promoting it. They also bring attention to the challenges related to Russian unprecedented attack on independent Ukraine.

Debates on shaping youth policies with youth participation, on strategic goals of working with and for young people, the migration background, the role of youth in intercultural dialogue and in combating discrimination will take place.

Study visits, inter alia, to youth spaces and to Community Centre "Baobab" will enhance the Congress. The Grants' Fair will be thoroughly devoted to grants competition introduction conducted by FRSE (the Foundation for the Development of the Education System) and the International Visegrad Fund.
