For a good number of years now, each FEIF Committee has a dedicated seat for a young committee member. Candidates are aged 18-26 and can apply directly to FEIF. Young committee members have a full vote and work under the same conditions as any other serving committee member, except that the position has a fixed term of 2 years. After that point individuals are free to stand for election if they want to continue with the work.

This year we welcomed two new young people from Denmark and Germany to join the Education department and the Youth Work committee. We want to thank the outgoing persons for their contributions. In October 2025, seats in the Sport, Breeding and Leisure Riding committees will become available by rotation. If interested, look out for invitations for these in late summer of 2025.
