Through "Outreach Events" the EYP also tries to include socially disadvantaged young people. In Germany, for example, the Deutsche Telekom supports initiatives of the EYP to achieve this aim.

In Schwerin, an EYP Outreach event was just recently concluded which also included young people who are often not involved in European youth projects. See here.
