Calls on the European Commission to put forward a proposal for a European Youth Corps program with the purpose of giving young people under the age of 30 across Europe the possibility to do voluntary work in another Member State than their own for up to three months; notes that the idea of the European Youth Corps is to give young people the chance to use and upgrade their educational and social skills and increase young people's knowledge of another Member State and to promote friendship and integration across the EU; emphasises that work done by members of the Youth Corps must be voluntary and non-paid and may not replace existing jobs in the visited country; believes that a European Youth Corps should be conceived as a public- private partnership with the aim of setting up a program where young people can receive an individual grant which covers travel and living expenses for a maximum period of up to three months;
