European Liberal Youth


European Liberal Youth is an international organisation of liberal youth movements – mostly the youth wings of members of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Party but also individual members.
LYMEC holds full members status to the European Youth Forum. It is the official youth wing of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe Party and holds separate votes in the statutory bodies of the ALDE Party.
Even though the organisation is now called European Liberal Youth, it is still known as LYMEC, which is the abbreviation of the name when the organisation was formed in 1976. It was then known as Liberal and Radical Youth Movement of the European Communities.
