About EYCE
As a Christian youth organisation, EYCE strives to represent young people in Europe as much as possible. EYCE works on an entirely ecumenical basis, and therefore considers itself to be part of the wider ecumenical movement. It wants to encourage Churches and Christian youth movements in Europe to strive towards the unity of all Christians.
Executive Committee
The Executive Committee (ExCo) is a board of seven volunteers, elected by the General Meeting for two years, who are responsible for the work of the Council and for the implementation of the mandates of the General Meeting.
The ExCo takes all political decisions needed for the daily work of EYCE, in accordance with the mandates of the General Meeting.
New Executive Committee has been elected during the 45th EYCE General Meeting, which took place in August 2023 in Poland. In Spring of 2024 Executive was co-opted with two new members.
Members
