After 4 days of intense work, the general assembly of the 200 of students coming from 29 countries in Bologna for the European Youth Meeting 2009, voted the final version of the common document. The final document is divided in 3 chapters inspired to the 3 main titles of the working groups. The most voted documents among the 3 versions for each topic realized by the working groups formed the final document, to be spread and communicated to local authorities and EU institutions. The 51 teachers present at European Youth Meeting 2009 worked out a recommendation as well, tackling the problem of Education as unique ongoing process passing through Formal, Non Formal and Informal Learning, identifying limits, resources available, main aims and support needed from the institutions to reinforce their everyday action.

All these documents are available and downloadable on line on this website, together with the power point presentations that accompanied the process of sharing with authorities, the 28th November 2009.

It is searching, in fact, for a new organizational framework to bring an increased effectiveness and coherence to the European actions, scope and to its institutional functions, increasing its transparency, its administrative and communication simplification and its efficiency in managing the European resources.
