EYP member, Mirna Dragaš, points out that through work in committees and at the general assembly, they had the opportunity to discuss and present their views on current challenges facing the policies of the European Union and the world. In addition to the opportunity to present their views on given problems and improve their knowledge about the European Union, member Arabela Šarkić emphasizes the importance of awareness of the diverse cultures they encountered.

- First of all, you are surprised by the fact that in such a short period of time you manage to make very dear acquaintances and friends for the future - says Šarkić.

The European Youth Parliament in BiH (EYP BiH) was founded in 2013 as part of a network of non-profit and non-governmental organizations in 41 European countries. The most significant goal of the organization is to encourage reflection on current social and cultural problems, as well as the promotion of democratic values and influence on young people through informal and innovative educational methods.
