We asked young people attending EPP Group Youth Week at the European Parliament if they know what the State of the Union Address is?
Do you know?
Engaging young people in politics is important because:
- they are informed when making their voting choices
- they develop their own views and positions
- they will encourage their peers to engage in politics
- they will realise the importance of democracy
- they will talk about it on their social media accounts
- it may inspire them to be future political leaders
The State of the Union address, also known as the State of the European Union or SOTEU, is delivered every year by the European Commission President to the European Parliament plenary session in September.
