Organized in cooperation with institutions of public administration at the regional level, EU Days are a unique opportunity for the presentation of the European Union, its Member States and EU-funded projects in Azerbaijan's regions. The participation of thousands of mostly young people at the "EU4YOU" event at Mingachevir's Samad Vurgun Square were a testament to the interest of local, mostly young, people in the EU. Besides various projects supported by the EU and mostly focused on regional development, 5 EU Member States and 3 Partner States presented themselves in tents at the event, represented by the Embassies of the Czech Republic, France, Georgia, Germany, Moldova, Spain, Sweden and Ukraine in Baku.
