Young European Jury
To encourage young European citizens to take a personal stance on current affairs, and to open a dialogue about representations of contemporary societies, Fipa created a Young Europeans Jury in 2002. In this way, the festival is able to raise awareness of our political, economic, or social environments in this open-minded and curious age group that is keen to discover new perspectives on the world.

Every year, Fipa gives 13 French-speaking, 15-17 year-old high school students from the European Union a chance to sit on the Young European Jury. With the patronage of a well-known figure from the audiovisual industry, these young jury members award a production in the competitive “Reportages and Current Affairs” category.

In 2004 and in 2007 as new states (Bulgaria, Cyprus, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania, Slovakia, and Slovenia) joined the European Union, eligibility for the Young Europeans Jury was extended to candidates from these new member states.

In 2011, in order to celebrate the 10th edition of the Young Europeans Jury, Fipa looked to the future by inviting high school students from eight European countries candidates to join the European Union: Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia, Iceland, Kosovo, Macedonia, Serbia, and Turkey.
By special agreement, and since the first edition, the French jury member is selected in the Region of Aquitaine.

In 2012, the festival will set up a Young Europeans Jury for the eleventh time.
