JEF is composed by its members working together to promote the creation of a democratic European federation as a guarantee for peace and a more free, just and democratic society. Our local and regional sections are grouped in National Sections.

We also have several Candidate Sections, formed by JEF-Europe, that are active in countries where no registered section existed before. After organising successful activities, these activists can apply for candidate status during a statutory meeting. If the section remains active during the next 2 years and carries out JEF’s policies and -spirit, they can be accepted as full member sections during the next statutory meeting.
