The London Region Youth Exchange Committee is one of twelve regional committees across the United Kingdom, which promotes international youth work for young people and youth workers.
The main focus of our work is with the European YOUTH Programme, which offers financial support for the four main actions of the programme. The full programme can be accessed at Connect Youth’s website: www.connectyouthinternational.com
To this end LRYEC enters into an annual service level agreement with Connect Youth at the British Council (the UK’s National Agency for the EC’s YOUTH Programme).
Aside from processing grant application forms from youth groups, the committee further provides the following:
The committee has a Regional Coordinator who works closely with Connect Youth and provides the necessary liaison between the National Agency, committee members, London PYO’s and youth projects across London.
A recent initiative now links the committee even closer to the 32 boroughs of London via the Partnership for Young London.
The Committee boasts an impressive training group which provides an annual training programme for youth workers and young people, with events ranging from one day local trainings to weekend residentials, normally held in Boulogne sur Mer, France.
