Dear delegates,
The 14th European Youth Parliament for Water is almost upon us. We hope your preparations are going well. The organizers are hard at work preparing for your arrival in Rovereto tomorrow.
We are from many countries and speak many languages. We have come together in a spirit of cooperation to bring this year's Parliament to you. This gathering of engaged minds that you are about to experience is an opportunity to envision the change you want to see in the world. The process of dialogue, exchange and compromise you will experience is a valuable learning opportunity. The Parliament offers you a chance to tackle an important subject you are passionate about, but also to bond, form lasting friendships, and grow as a person.
We hope that when you arrive in beautiful Rovereto, you find the peace and calm to contemplate the responsibility of guiding the future of our planet's water resources. In the always apt words of French author Paul Valery:
The future, like everything else, is not what it used to be.
–The Organizers of the 14th Parliament

- Traditional dress and music for the Intercultural Night on Tuesday.

The 14th European Youth Parliament for Water would not have been possible without our local coordinators, the Fondazione Opera Campana dei Caduti and the Comune di Rovereto. Thank you also to our partners, Gruppo Dolomiti Energia, and ITAS Assicurazioni. We wish to extend our sincerest thanks to our founding partners, the Government of Switzerland (SDC) and the Agence de l’eau Artois-Picardie, for their generous support.
