⏱️ Between June 2021 and April 2023, ATD Fourth World organized a European campaign with the aim of creating an advocacy program in response to the question: "What does it mean to be young with a difficult life path today in Europe?". This campaign raised a central demand for young people: to make known and understood their experiences of poverty and exclusion as well as their dreams and reflections on the world. ▶️ Discover the advocacy and the 13 proposals for a Europe that leaves no young person behind: https://vu.fr/bWWF
