Elite Events was appointed to provide facilitation and participant coordination services for EPP Group Youth Week 2026 at the European Parliament in Brussels. The assignment supported an international programme of workshops, collaborative activities and group presentations.
The brief required a structured approach to participation, enabling young people from different countries and backgrounds to contribute to discussions and work together throughout the programme.
Elite Events was responsible for recruiting, briefing, coordinating and supervising the facilitator team, supported by a dedicated project coordinator who served as the operational point of contact.
Our preparatory work included workshop materials, facilitator guidance, presentation templates and participant communications. We also developed the European Connections Challenge, a structured networking activity designed to encourage exchanges between participants from different countries and backgrounds.
During the programme, our team coordinated the facilitators and provided practical support for group discussions, workshop activities and the preparation of final presentations.
The programme required a consistent facilitation approach across parallel working groups. Participants brought different levels of confidence, language fluency and familiarity with the institutional context, requiring facilitators to adapt their approach while maintaining the agreed structure and timetable.
Our facilitators supported inclusive participation, managed group dynamics and monitored the progress of workshop activities. Their role focused on the facilitation process and practical coordination, while policy advisers retained responsibility for the substantive content.
The assignment brought together specialist facilitation, structured preparation and on-site coordination to support the delivery of the workshop programme. Our team assisted participants with group discussions, collaborative tasks and the preparation of their final presentations.
The project demonstrates Elite Events’ capacity to provide dedicated facilitation teams and operational support for participatory programmes within an EU institutional setting.
