Youth Policy
Youth is our future
The municipality of Geldrop-Mierlo truly believes that youth is our future. The youth policy plan is based on opportunities and possibilities for children to develop into active, independent, happy and responsible people. This means that we pay attention to talent development and teach young people to make a positive contribution to society.
