Since 2008, the European Parliament together with the ‘Foundation of the International Charlemagne Prize of Aachen’ has each year been inviting young people from all EU Member States to submit projects run by and for youth showing an active participation in the development of Europe.
The Parliament acts as a co-legislator, sharing with the Council the power to adopt and amend legislative proposals and to decide on the EU budget. It also supervises the work of the Commission and other EU bodies and cooperates with national parliaments of EU countries to get their input. See how it all works here.
