Advisory Council on Youth

Joint Council on Youth at its 41st meeting at the European Youth Center Strasbourg (2019)

The Advisory Council on Youth (AC; French: Conseil consultatif sur la jeunesse, CCJ; German: Beirat zu Jugendfragen[1]) is a non-governmental youth constituency of the Council of Europe.[2][3] It is a crucial part of the unique co-management structure, a living example of participatory democracy, where young Europeans together with the European Steering Committee for Youth (CDEJ), the body of the representatives of Youth ministries from the 50 States Parties to the European Cultural Convention, equally decide on the standards and work priorities of the Council of Europe's youth sector in the Joint Council on Youth (CMJ).[4]
