You may have already noticed — YEN has a brand-new website! While the new site is fully functional, it’s still a work in progress. We’re currently focusing on updating individual pages and refining the content throughout the platform. Just like YEN itself, the website is available in both English and German.

Are you 16–30 and part of a ethnic, national, linguistic and autochthonous minority in Europe? Want to explore your identity through theatre, creative writing or dance?
