Youth for Exchange and Understanding (YEU) is an International Non-Governmental Non-profit Youth Organisation established in 1986 and member of the European Youth Forum in Brussels as an INGYO. YEU is recognized as INGYO by the Council of Europe and by the Directorate of Youth and Sports of the European Commission, whom support our activities.

YEU looks forward to increase tolerance and awareness between different countries, cultures and traditions, and to promote a greater level of comprehension through the development of youth exchanges, seminars, conventions, meetings, study visits, training courses, working groups for investigation, studying and analysis of youth concerns/themes, educative manuals, between other activities of educational nature. The main aim of the Youth for Exchange and Understanding is to promote peace, understanding and co-operation between the young people of the world, in a spirit of respect for human rights. To achieve these YEU will thus provide activities to foster closer co-operation and better understanding among the young people of the world, both between and within continents, particularly by encouraging the exchange of information; to stimulate mutual aid in the developed and the developing countries for cultural, educational and social purposes; to encourage the interdenominational exchange of ideas and opinions; to improve the relationships among young people of countries with differing political systems; to work together on issues affecting people and their environment. YEU is a non-profit making, interdenominational youth organisation independent of all political affiliation run by young people for young people by means of a democratic structure. ==History== Youth for Exchange and Understanding (YEU) was founded on the 28th of August 1986 in Strasbourg by a group of 120 young people from 11 different countries. Since 1989 it has been recognized as a member association of the European Coordination Bureau (E.C.B.). Today YEU is full member of the European Youth Forum in Brussels and considered by the CoE & the E.U. as an INGYO. That was a result of 4-year cooperation witch started in Germany in 1983 with the first international meeting with participants from 8 countries. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Youth for Exchange and Understanding」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
