First Young Caritas conference

Last week, 70 delegates from 31 European countries, among wich delegates from Young Caritas Luxembourg, Caritas Europa and Caritas Internationalis met for the first Conference on Social Education and Young Volunteerism in Vienna.

This conference was the largest meeting of Caritas youth organizations at European level so far.

The goals were to facilitate an exchange of experience and knowledge, develop a common strategy and intensify the cooperation at the European level. The delegates finally adopted the "Vienna Declaration on Young Caritas", testifying to the willingness of all to do everything possible to ensure that young people have the opportunity to become socially engaged.
