Insurance Europe and the European Youth Parliament kick-off partnership
The partnership involved a number of activities, including the EYP developing a position on pensions in Europe during its International sessions in Thessaloniki in 2024 and the Hague in 2025.
Europe’s pension crisis: young people demand fairness and propose reform
Insurance Europe also held a one-day innovation lab in partnership with the European Youth Parliament during its 15th International Conference in Brussels on 5 June. It gathered nearly 60 young people from 22 European countries who discussed and presented their expectations of the insurance industry.
