Open Method of Cooperation (OMC):

European Commission proposes common objectives for each priority
(through dialogue with MS);
Council of Youth Ministers then adopts common objectives for the
priorities;
Member states implement the common objectives and report back to the
Commission on achievements;
European Commission presents progress analyses to the Council of
Youth Ministers and proposer how to advance further;
Council of Youth Ministers then decides on the proposed new follow-up
Structured dialogue with young people
