The event \u201cYoung People for Europe and the Left \u2013 Perceptions and Expectations\u201d<\/strong> was successfully held on Friday, February 27<\/strong>, during which the findings of the Prorata study \u201cMapping Youth\u201d<\/strong> were presented. The research was conducted on behalf of the Nikos Poulantzas Institute<\/strong> and The Left in the European Parliament<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The discussion highlighted the phenomenon of a \u201cblocked transition to adulthood\u201d<\/strong> experienced by a generation facing rising living costs, precarious employment, housing pressure and uncertainty about the future. The findings are striking: 92% consider wages to be low, 65% rely on financial support from their families, while only 31% believe that the future will be positive.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Particular emphasis was placed on the changing perception of Europe<\/strong>: from a promise of opportunity to a last resort<\/strong>, within a broader environment of social insecurity and a crisis of trust.<\/p>\n

The strong attendance and lively discussion confirmed the need for meaningful policies that address the needs of the younger generation and reconnect social justice with the European project.<\/strong><\/p>\n
