The report is reflecting on an international conference, which gathered together over 40 European and national policy makers, international and national experts, youth representatives and activists and over 40 young participants across Europe, the Black Sea and Mediterranean regions. In theory, young people have access to social protection, but in practice if you are a young refugee then you are often denied access to any services and benefits. The recent migration crisis has also shown that European policies are inadequate in ensuring the rights of all young people in Europe are respected. Youth organizations across Europe have turned out to be one of the main driving forces toward a better social inclusion and integration of refugees. Many youth movements launched welcoming campaigns of refugees and started their own project for social inclusion of young refugees, asylum seekers and migrants.
