We dream of a European YMCA Movement
* inspired by its Christian ecumenical mission
* moved by an open and creative spirit, and actively involving young people
* playing an active and prophetic role in today's global and local realities
* uniting each other to realise the YMCA mission in the diversity of national contexts which is
* challenging and relevant for young people both a sign of God's Reign and Love on earth.
In working towards the fulfilment of this Mission, the YMCA Europe will
* Affirm that the Paris Basis, the Kampala Principles and Challenge 21 are the ongoing foundation statements of the mission of the YMCA
* Emphasise the Christian identity and mission of the YMCA as an ecumenical lay movement, working independent of, but in co-operation with the Churches and respecting confessional differences.
* Constantly analyse what our Christian identity and mission means in today's European and global realities and translate it into action in these contexts.
* Will recognize and endorse the pre-eminence of volunteers in the governance of the movement at every level
* Ensure the active participation of young people at every level
* Aim towards gender balanced representation.
* Emphasise the YMCA's wholeness concept of body, mind and spirit in community.
* Promote and work for sustainable development to strive for justice, peace and integrity of creation.
* Emphasise international thinking and solidarity within Europe and worldwide.
* Respect and support the multicultural nature of Europe and the European YMCAs.
* Respect the independence and self-determination of each National Movement, as well as its specific way of expressing the YMCA's mission in the given cultural, religious and socio-economic context.
* Strive for unity among the European YMCA family, including fostering processes of mutual learning, exchange and mutual critical reflection about positions in the spirit of "Begleitung".
* Be an inspiring, needs-orientated and effective organisation of high quality, applying the principles of subsidiarity and "Begleitung", and using innovative, participatory and process orientated methods.
