Youthmakers Hub Presents the AU–EU Youth Voices Lab Programme and App to the EIMAS Alumni Network

On October 9, 2025, during the closing ceremony of the EIMAS program at the Goethe Institute in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Youthmakers Hub representatives Konstantinos Maragkos and Silvia Diazzi presented our programme alongside the AU-EU Youth Voices Lab mobile application to the EIMAS alumni network.

The session brought together 55 young scholars, EIMAS deans, staff, and Advisory Board members from four cohorts across Africa and Europe. Participants engaged with the programme’s objectives, explored youth-led policy advocacy, and discussed digital innovation. They also tested the app’s co-creation features and multilingual accessibility, providing valuable feedback that will guide its future development.

This engagement strengthened the connection between youth-focused initiatives and higher education institutions in Africa and Europe. The insights gathered during the session will directly contribute to enhancing the app and improving the experience of young people across the continent.
