I. THE DESCRIPTION OF THE EVENT
Besides Romanian here live together in peace Turkish, Greeks,
Ukrainians, Tatars, Macedo-Romanians, Armenians, Russians,
Gypsies, Jewish, Bulgarians and others.
The city is located in the Dobrogea region of Romania, on
the Black Sea coast. 120 youngsters from European countries
will celebrate the European Year 2015 - European Year of
Citizens Competition under the motto “TΟΜΙΣ: A multicultural example for Europe!”, combining the typical EYP program
with cultural, sports events, trips and even relaxing time, as
well as enjoying the summer sun while discovering the beauty
of Romanian beaches.
The European Youth Parliament TOMIΣ FORUM 2015 will
take place in Constanta, the oldest living city in Romania,
founded around 600 BC. For centuries
Constanta was
known as TΟΜΙΣ and experienced the Greek, Macedonian,
Roman or Turkish occupation, which explains now the fact
that here we can find more minorities recognized by
Romanian law than anywhere else in Europe.
The aim of this document is to answer all your questions
regarding the program, travel details, costs etc. If you have
further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at
