European Free Alliance Youth is a youth organisation made up of members who belong to organisations, movements or political parties that safeguard and promote the cultural, linguistic and national diversity of Europe. The EFAY therefore is an alliance of the youth branches of nationalist and regionalist political parties and organizations throughout Europe, who are actively engaged at the State-Regional and European level. Our members work towards a greater recognition of European diversity.

EFAy is the youth wing of the European Free Alliance European political party. Created by Mikel Irujo (currently MEP for Eusko Alkartasuna) in 2000, when he was Secretary for international issues of Gazte Abertzaleak. It's current president is Rhisiart Tal-e-bot (Cornwall), elected in the last General Assembly, celebrated in Bilbao the 19th of April 2007, when he replaced the last president, Lander de Bilbao, from Gazte Abertzaleak (Basque Country).

Although it is a pro-European organisation, the EFAY believes in a different European model to the one which is being offered at the moment. Opposed to the idea of a Europe of the States and the present European model. EFAY’s vision is of a Europe that upholds and celebrates national diversity against State assimilation and uniformity. The EFAY is in favour of a ‘Europe of the Peoples’; a Europe that respects and protects its different national minorities and identities, languages and cultures; and believes in a Europe that upholds the principle of subsidiarity, supports and encourages self-determination, campaigns effectively for social justice and environmental protection and pursues progressive democracy and recognises diversity.
