Young feminists across Europe have a big chance right now. The AGORA 2026 call for participants is open. This is the European Women’s Lobby (EWL) Young Feminists’ Summer Camp. It brings women aged 18 to 30 from the EU to Brussels for a 5-day event in summer 2026. The main theme is violence against women and girls. You can build skills, networks, and ideas for future activism. Applications close soon on April 17, 2026. This article covers costs, eligibility, and how to apply.
AGORA started in 2015 as EWL’s yearly summer camp for young feminists. It marked its 10th anniversary in 2025, making 2026 the 11th year. The event now has about 290 alumnae in its network. These women connect across Europe for support and action. The 5-day camp in Brussels dives into intersectional feminism. It covers violence against women and girls through workshops and talks. Participants learn from each other and prepare to lead. The goal is to spark solidarity and new ideas. For full details, check the official AGORA page.
