Overview
The European Union Visitors Programme (EUVP) invites young leaders from outside the EU for study visits to the European institutions. Participants gain first-hand information on the EU's values, functioning, activities, policies and perspectives.
Details
Each study visit is individually tailored to meet the participant’s work profile and interests. A typical EUVP study-tour lasts for five days in Brussels, and is extended by three days to include Strasbourg for those involved in political activities.
The EUVP helps promote common EU values through strengthening long-term bilateral relations between the EU and other countries. An important aim is to create an external network of contacts for the European Parliament and the European Commission. The European External Action Service (EEAS) directly benefits from this network.
