The second prize, worth €5,000, went to the French initiative ‘Penser, agir et plaider ensemble pour ne laisser aucun.e jeune de côté’ (in English: ‘Think, act and stand up together so that no young person is left behind’).

It gives them the opportunity to make their voices heard and stand up for change. Language and geographical barriers are irrelevant. There is room for topics such as harassment, discrimination, isolation, unemployment and barriers to education.
