Applications open 12 October, at noon and close on 26 October, at noon, for a travel period in 2022, which will be the <strong>European Year of Youth<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Vice-President for the European Way of Life, Margaritis<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>Schinas<\/strong>&nbsp;said:&nbsp;<em>\u201cOver the past 18 months, in a true spirit of solidarity, our young people have sacrificed valuable youthful and defining moments of their lives. I am delighted that the Commission offers today a European boom of mobility with the 60,000 train passes. This European boom of mobility and opportunities will be further fostered by Erasmus+ and many more initiatives coming for the European Year of Youth in 2022.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth, Mariya<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>Gabriel<\/strong>, said<em>: \u201cI am very glad to open this new round of DiscoverEU to give 60,000 young people the chance to discover the richness of our continent. In the spirit of the Commission designating 2022 the European Year of Youth, DiscoverEU is back, bigger than ever, with new opportunities for young people to take a train, broaden their horizons, extend their learning, enrich their experiences and meet fellow Europeans while travelling by rail as of March 2022.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>This&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/europa.eu\/youth\/discovereu_en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">application round is open<\/a>&nbsp;to young Europeans born between 1 July 2001 and 31 December 2003. Exceptionally, 19 and 20 year-olds can also apply after their rounds were postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>Successful applicants can travel between March 2022 and February 2023 for up to 30 days. As the evolution of the pandemic remains unknown, all travellers will be offered flexible bookings through a new mobile travel pass. The departure date can be changed right up until the time of departure. The mobile travel passes have a one-year validity. The Commission advises all travellers to check potential travel restrictions on&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/reopen.europa.eu\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">ReopenEU<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Young people with special needs are strongly encouraged to participate in <strong>DiscoverEU<\/strong>. The Commission will put information and tips at their disposal and cover the costs of special assistance, such as an accompanying person, an assistance dog, etc.<\/p>\n<p>Successful applicants can travel&nbsp;alone or in a group of up to five people (all within the eligible age range). To reinforce sustainable travel &#8211; and thereby support the European Green Deal, DiscoverEU participants will predominantly travel by rail. However, to ensure wide access across the EU, participants can also use alternative modes of transport, such as coaches or ferries, or exceptionally, planes. This will ensure that young people living in remote areas or on islands also have a chance to take part.<\/p>\n<p>Every Member State is allocated a number of travel passes, based on its population, as a proportion of the overall population of the European Union.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"article-title\"><em>Background<\/em><\/h2>\n<p>The Commission launched&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/europa.eu\/youth\/discovereu_en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">DiscoverEU<\/a><\/strong>&nbsp;in June 2018, following a proposal from the European Parliament. It has been formally integrated into the new&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/commission\/presscorner\/detail\/en\/ip_21_1326\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Erasmus+ programme 2021-2027<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DiscoverEU<\/strong> connects thousands of young people, building a community across Europe. Participants who had never met before linked up on social media, exchanged tips or offered local insights, formed groups to travel from city to city or stayed at each other&#8217;s places.<\/p>\n<p>In 2018-2019, 350,000 candidates applied for a total of 70,000 travel passes available: 66% of candidates travelled for the first time by train out of their country of residence. For many, it was also the first time they travelled without parents or accompanying adults and the majority indicated that they had become more independent. The <strong>DiscoverEU<\/strong> experience has given them a better understanding of other cultures and of European history. It has also improved their foreign language skills. Two-thirds said that they would not have been able to finance their travel pass without <strong>DiscoverEU<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Since 2018, former and prospective <strong>DiscoverEU<\/strong> travellers now form a diverse and engaged community that meets on- and offline to share their experiences.<\/p>\n<p>Participants are invited to become <strong>DiscoverEU Ambassadors<\/strong> to champion the initiative. They are also encouraged to contact fellow travellers on the official&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/EuropeanYouthEU\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><strong>DiscoverEU<\/strong> group online<\/a>&nbsp;to share experiences and exchange tips, particularly on cultural experiences, or on how to travel digitally and sustainably.<\/p>\n<p>To apply, eligible candidates need to complete a multiple-choice quiz on general knowledge about the European Union and other EU initiatives targeting young people. An additional question invites applicants to make an estimate of how many people apply in this round. The closer the estimate is to the correct answer, the more points the applicant gets. This will enable the Commission to rank the applicants. The Commission will offer travel passes to applicants following their ranking until the available tickets run out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DiscoverEU connects thousands of young people, building a community across Europe The Commission will provide free travel rail passes to 60,000 Europeans aged from 18 to 20 years, thanks to&nbsp;DiscoverEU.
