On April the 13th at a European Youth meeting in Brussels, Moroccan-Italian Yasmine Ouirhane was awarded the Young European of the Year prize. She received this award by the Schwarzkopf Foundation Young Europe in March, as a recognition of her efforts in the fight against inequality.
?A month ago, as I announced my award, I was the target of hundreds of messages of hate, threats, insults. Yesterday, I finally spoke my truth, so please share and amplify my message of peace ????
