The European Youth Parliament in Belgium, Czech Republic and Finland have been chosen as national winners in this year´s Charlemagne Youth Prize competition. The prizes were awarded today in a cermony involving the President of the European Parliament, Hans-Gert Pöttering, in Aachen. The Prize is granted to projects undertaken by young people which foster understanding, promote the development of a shared sense of European identity, and offer practical examples of Europeans living together as one community.
