In Zusammenarbeit mit der portugiesischen Mitgliedspartei der EL Bloco de Esquerda, versammelt die Sommer- Universität junge Aktivist_innen und Mitglieder aus Parteien und sozialen Bewegungen aus ganz Europa zur Auseinandersetzung mit aktuellen politische und soziale Fragen.
In Workshops und Plena tauschen die Teilnehmenden ihre Erfahrungen aus und diskutieren über Politiken und Initiativen für ein anderes Europa.
Neben diesem Austausch soll es auch Raum geben zur Sammlung von Ideen für die Wahlkampagne der EL zu den Europaparlamentswahlen 2014.
