ENGSO Youth Young Delegates programme connects individuals who are willing to take meaningful action and play an important role in advocating and empowering children and young people in the sport for all sectors.
It is a devoted and knowledgeable group of individuals (18-30 years old), committed to using sport as a tool for positive social change. ENGSO Youth Young Delegates contribute to the development of the organisation and are directly involved in ENGSO Youth working groups during their two years mandate.
The Young Delegates programme aligns with the ENGSO Youth Committee mandate. This means that the programme welcomes new participants every two years, starting and concluding in the month of June (after the Committee elections).
The 2021-23 mandate ended in May, on the occasion of the Youth Assembly in Greece. Over 100 applicants, 50 interviews and 3 internal meetings – It’s now time to welcome a new group of young leaders who will join one of the five working groups.
