Got a story about being asked to do an unpaid internship just because it’s “good experience”? We’ve heard one too many!
Starting in a few minutes - follow a live discussion from Strasbourg on what we plan to do about it.

Social issues are at the core of young europeans’ concerns.
I have been under all type of contact that exists: 0-hour, internships. The one thing I’ve never had is an indeterminate contract.
Unpaid internships are a plague in Europe. This must change.

We are the very first generation growing up poorer than our parents.
We cannot start a savings account, buy a house, or have basic financial stability.
We live in a world of climate crisis, housing crisis - crises we haven’t made!
Politics must change this!

In a time of shrinking income and purchasing power, we need better wages and better working conditions!
Historically, we have always been a movement for hope in a better future.
We need strong policies and we must always check their impact on young people.

From more democracy to fighting climate change, from paying your interns to changing the Treaties - one thing is clear: the young generation has specific needs.
MEPs @sara_saracerdas @domenecd & @mrossemp joined us today, listened & will push for change.

La jeunesse est le plus fortement touchée du point de vue économique.
Il y a un vrai besoin de parler des problèmes des jeunes.
Heureusement, nous avons un groupe socialiste qui s’engage, qui se bat pour les jeunes.
