The European Commission is accepting applications for the 9th edition of Youth4Regions, its programme for aspiring journalists. In October 2025, selected participants will spend a week in Brussels, where they will receive practical training, expert mentoring and gain experience in the newsroom. They will also take part in exclusive visits to EU institutions and media organisations. This year, students and young journalists from EU Member States, neighbouring countries and candidate countries can apply in three categories: general journalism, photojournalism and video journalism.
