EU priority

Environmental protection should be a top EU priority, young Europeans say

Environmental protection and combating climate change should be a priority for the European Union, 67% of young Europeans say according to a public opinion poll conducted by the Eurobarometer.

Following are priorities such as the development of education, including student exchange programs, and the fight against poverty: 56% of young Europeans supported these options. 49% of young Europeans believe that the main task of the EU is to help create jobs and fight unemployment. But only 28% of European youth voted for ensuring security as an EU priority.

More than 10.5 thousand Europeans aged 15 to 30 years from all 28 EU countries participated in this survey. The poll was timed to the elections to the European Parliament, which will be held at the end of May 2019. Its main task is to find out what, in the opinion of European youth, will make the EU stronger and more prosperous.
