MEDITERRANEAN YOUTH COUNCIL: CALL FOR MEMBERSHIP 2025

The call for applications to the Mediterranean Youth Council (MYC) 2025 is now open. This is a unique opportunity for young people, aged 18 to 30 years old,  from your regions to engage more directly in regional and international policymaking.

The MYC, co-founded in 2022, is a dynamic platform that brings together young people from 17 Mediterranean countries. As you know, the Intermediterranean Commission, alongside Region Sud (in collaboration with Têtes de l’Art) and Region Lazio, was an instrumental actor in its creation. Since then, the IMC and Member regions have supported the MYC to participate in CPMR and IMC statutory events, as well as local regional events.

The MYC is also part of the IMC’s strategic objective to foster youth participation in shaping the future of our regions and of the Mediterranean; the IMC Secretariat ensures, in fact, coordination between the MYC and Member regions too.

Please find attached the official flyer for the 2025 call for membership, which provides all key information about objectives, opportunities, and commitments involved.

In order to ensure representation of young people from the IMC territories, please support the sharing of this call for applications among your networks, regional youth councils and communities:  APPLICATION FORM – deadline 30 June 2025 (Shortlisted candidates will be invited for online interviews in June-July 2025).

The selection process & main criteria:

·       Young people from Mediterranean countries aged between 18 and 30

·       Fluent in English (even if we promote multilingualism!)

·       Available to commit time throughout 2025–2026

·       Actively involved in a local or regional youth initiative

The MYC is committed to ensuring gender and geographical balance; selected members do not represent any organisation or administration but participate in a neutral and personal capacity.
