EU Youth should SHOUT about Unemployment

On Thursday 30 April 2009, at 3.30 p.m. CET young Europeans will gather in Berlin, Milan and Prague to ask loud and clear: « Can you hear me Europe? ». Thousands of other young people from Venice to Vilnius will join them from parks and squares, from their windows or from their mobile phones and webcams to create a "European soundwave" that symbolically demonstrates the importance of their voice in the upcoming European elections.

Figures released today by this same European Union report Youth Unemployment (Under 25) as follows:

Eurozone Area 16 ex-countries March 2008 14.5 %

Eurozone Area 16 ex-countries March 2009 18.1 %

European Union 27 ex-nation states March 2008 14.6 %

European Union 27 ex-nation states March 2009 18.3%

Shout for the EU, were I under 25 I would yell my head off at it!
