From interest group to section
Interest group
Bring people together in a country where JEF is not yet present and organise your first activities. A member of the JEF Europe Executive Board can help you get started.
Candidate section
After organising successful activities, your interest group can apply for candidate status at a JEF Europe statutory meeting, with the approval of the Executive Board.
National section
Remain active for the next two years and consistently uphold JEF’s policies and spirit. You can then apply for full membership at a JEF Europe Congress.
Tools for building your section
Practical guides from the JEF network, from recruiting members to organising seminars and finding funding.
