The Maydays MFR 2022 festival

The teams and young people of MFR Anneyron and MFR Mondy (joined remotely by MFR Reunion and MFR St Dié) meet for 2 days on their territory to experience the Maydays festival. They will develop and share their thoughts as rural youth for a green, sustainable and inclusive Europe.

As part of the 9th EU Youth Dialogue campaign, a workshop will encourage young people to reflect on information and education issues related to environmental challenges. This workshop will be led by the CNAJEP's Provox facilitator, and a simulation workshop of the European legislative decision-making process will be led by Europe Direct Drôme Ardèche. Other key players in active citizenship will be present and will co-facilitate these discussions, including L'Etabli & Voicifi . Thanks to the involvement of local representatives, young people will have the opportunity to interact with administrators, local elected officials, and Members of the European Parliament.

Meanwhile, the MFRs of Gard are organizing their own event: a citizen's walk to clean up and protect the Gorges du Gardon.

Last year, young people from the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region (MFR Agencourt and MFR Anzy-le-Duc) experienced this event in the presence of their board of directors. Relive the enthusiasm of young people on video here:
