The most widely accepted pronunciation of ECOSY is as a single word with short "e" and short "o". Ecosy is the youth organisation of the [[Party of European Socialists]] (PES) and is a member of the [[International Union of Socialist Youth]] (Iusy). The [[seat (legal entity)|seat]] of the organisation is [[Brussels]]. Full members status is held to the [[European Youth Forum]] ([[YFJ]]) which operates within the [[Council of Europe]] and [[European Union]] areas and works closely with both these bodies. Giacomo Filibeck (Sinistra Giovanile) is Ecosy president, Ania Skrzypek (Federacja Młodych Socjaldemokratów) is Secretary General. == History == Ecosy was founded as the ''European Community Organisation of Socialist Youth'' in November [[1992]] in Oegstgeest/[[The Hague]]. Before 1992 the European activities had been coordinated inside Iusy, especially in the ''European Leaders Meeting''. The foundation of Ecosy had been controversial. In particular, the [[Austria]]ns and the [[Sweden|Swedish]] promoted an all-European organisation, including the non-[[European Union|EU]] members. The ''European Socialist Youth'' (Esy), founded in parallel, was only a weak organisation, a short time later renamed as ''European Committee'', one of the Iusy continental committees. == Member organisations == * Austria: [[Socialist Youth Austria|Sozialistische Jugend Österreichs]] (SJ) * Austria: [[Socialist Students of Austria|Verband Sozialistischer StudentInnen Österreichs]] (VSStÖ) * Belgium: [[Animo]] * Belgium: [[Movement of Young Socialists (Belgium)|Mouvement des Jeunes Socialistes]] (MJS) * Bulgaria: Българска социалистическа младежка (БСМ) / Balgarska Socialisticeska Mladezhka (BSМ) * Bulgaria: Европейска лява младежка алтернатива (ЕЛМА) / Evropejska Ljava Mladezhka Alternativa (ELMA) * Croatia: [[Forum mladih SDP]] * Cyprus: Νεολαία Σοσιαλδημοκρατών (ΝΕΟΣ) / Neolaia Sosialdimokraton (NEOS) * Czech Republic: Mladí Sociální Demokraté (MSD) * Danmark: [[Social Democratic Youth of Denmark|Danmarks Socialdemokratiske Ungdom]] (DSU) * Estonia: [[Young Social Democrats (Estonia)|Noored Sotsiaaldemokraadid]] (Noor-sots) * Finland: [[Social Democratic Youth (Finland)|Sosialidemokraattiset Nuoret]] (Demarinuoret) * Finland: [[Social Democratic Students (Finland)|Sosialidemokraattiset Opiskelijat]] (SONK) * France: [[Movement of Young Socialists (France)|Mouvement des Jeunes Socialistes]] (MJS) * Germany: [[Young Socialists in the SPD|Jusos in der SPD]] * Germany: [[Socialist Youth of Germany - Falcons|Sozialistische Jugend Deutschlands (SJD) - Die Falken]] * Greece: Νεολαία ΠΑΣΟΚ / Neolaia Pasok * Hungary: Fiatal Baloldal (FiB) * Ireland: [[Labour Youth]] * Italy: [[Young Left (Italy)|Sinistra Giovanile]] (SG) * Italy: [[Young Socialists Federation|Federazione dei Giovani Socialisti]] (FGS) * Latvia: [[Social Democratic Youth Union|Jaunatnes Sociāldemokrātiskā Savienība]] (JSS) * Lithuania: [[Lithuanian Social Democratic Youth Union|Lietuvos socialdemokratinio jaunimo sąjunga]] (LSDJS) * Luxembourg: [[Luxembourgese Socialist Youth|Jeunesses Socialistes Luxembourgeoises]] (JSL) * Malta: [[Labour Youth Forum (Malta)|Labour Youth Forum]] / Forum Zghazagh Laburisti (FZL) * Macedonia: Социјалдемократската младина на Македонија (СДММ) / [[Social Democratic Youth of Macedonia|Socijaldemokratskata mladina na Makedonija]] (SDMM) * Netherlands: [[Jonge Socialisten|Jonge Socialisten in de PvdA]] (JS) * Northern Ireland: [[SDLP Youth]] * Poland: [[Social Democratic Youth Federation|Federacja Młodych Socjaldemokratów]] (FMS) * Poland: [[Union of Labour Youth Federation|Federacja Młodych Unii Pracy]] (FMUP) * Portugal: [[Socialist Youth (Portugal)|Juventude Socialista]] (JS) * Romania: [[Social Democratic Youth (Romania)|Tineretul Social Democrat]] (TSD) * Slovakia: Mladí sociálni demokrati (MSD) * Slovenia: [[Mladi forum Socialnih Demokratov]] (Mladi forum SD) * Spain: [[Socialist Youth of Spain|Juventudes Socialistas de España]] (JSE) * Sweden: [[Swedish Social Democratic Youth League|Sveriges Socialdemokratiska Ungdomsförbund]] (SSU) * Sweden: [[Social Democratic Students of Sweden|Socialdemokratiska Studentförbundet]] (S-studenter) * United Kingdom: [[Labour Students]] * United Kingdom: [[Young Labour]] Beside this 38 full member organisations there are 16 observer members *[[Albania]]: Forumi i Rinisë Eurosocialiste të Shqipërisë (FESYA) *[[Albania]]: Rinisë Socialdemokrate *[[Armenia]]: Armenian Youth Federation Հայ Երիտասարդաց Դաշնակցութիւն (AYF) *[[Belorussia]]: Маладой Грамады (МСД-МГ) / Malada Hramada (MSD-MH) *[[Bosnia and Herzegovina|Bosnia]]: Forum Mladih SDP (BiH) *[[Catalunya]]: Joventut Socialista de Catalunya (JSC) *[[Cyprus]]: Αγώνας / Agonas *[[Georgia (country)|Georgia]]: Akhalgazrduli Kavshiri Sotsialisturi Sakartvelos *[[Island]]: Samband ungra jafnaðarmanna (SUJ) *[[Israel]]: משמר נוער בתוך מפלגת העבודה / Mishmeret Tse’irah shel Mifleget haAwoda *[[Norway]]: [[Arbeidernes ungdomsfylking]] (AUF) *[[Poland]]: Młodzi Socjaliści (MS) *[[Russia]]: Российский социал-демократический союз молодёжи (РСДСМ) / Rossijskij social-demokraticheskij sojuz molodjozhi (RSDSM) *[[San Marino]]: Area Giovani Socialisti Sammarinesi (MGSS) *[[Serbia]]: Socijaldemokratska omladina Социјалдемократска омладина *[[Serbia]]: Demokratska omladina Демократска омладина *[[Switzerland]]: JungsozialistInnen Schweiz (JUSO) / Jeunesse Socialiste Suisse (JS) == Ecosy presidents == Since the founding of ECOSY in [[1992]] until [[1997]], the presidency rotated simultaneously with the [[EU presidency|EU Presidency]] *1992 Tracy Paul (Young Labour) *1993 Henrik Sass Larsen (Danmarks Socialdemokratiske Ungdom) *1993 Ronald Gossiaux (Mouvement des Jeunes Socialistes / [[Belgium]]) *1994 ./.
