The network

Find your section

National sections connect young federalists across Europe. None near you? Start one.

A network built from the grassroots

JEF brings together more than 30 member sections, many with regional and local groups. We are transpartisan and work together for a free, just and democratic European federation.

Candidate sections and interest groups

Where no registered section exists, an interest group can start organising activities and seek Executive Board approval to become a candidate section at a JEF Europe statutory meeting. After two years of sustained activity in line with JEF’s policies and spirit, it can apply for full membership at a European Congress.
