About EYP CZ
The European Youth Parliament (EYP) is a student non-profit, politically neutral organisation, providing one of the largest platforms for non-curricular education in Europe. It gives its participants a forum to develop and express their opinions on a wide range of topics. By bringing young people from different backgrounds together, it builds intercultural understanding and friendships across borders. Thousands of young people from all over Europe are actively involved in the organisation, making it truly youth-driven – for young people, by young people.
European Youth Parliament CZ, the Czech branch of the network, was founded in 1998. Our National Committee organises two Regional Selection Conferences and one National Selection Conference per year, however, besides those it offers many other educational events and informal gatherings for its members.
About Plzeň
With almost 180 000 inhabitants, the 4th largest city in the Czech Republic was chosen as the host city of the 13th Regional Selection Conference of EYP CZ Plzeň 2023. Founded in 1295 by the Czech king Wenceslas II, the city lies at a very magical place – on the confluence of four rivers Úhlava, Úslava, Radbuza and Mže. Besides the remarkable history and rich-life present, Plzeň is world renowned due to its local enterprises such as legendary Pilsner Urquell or Škoda works.
