Junularo Esperantista Brita
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Junularo Esperantista Brita (JEB) is the organisation for young Esperantists in the British Isles. Its membership is free and open to anyone aged between 16 and 30 living in Britain. Since the launch of their website in February 2006, the association has grow substantially and in June, once again started publishing its magazine ‘Saluton’. October saw the launch of their new discussion forum which helps promote communication between members in different parts of the country. A new system has been put in place to receive donations so that the association will be able to continue to encourage young people to improve their language capabilities and to play a more active role in the Esperanto movement. JEB is hoping to use this funding to produce new publicity material.
The group will be meeting next 4-7 May 2007, at the Brita Kongreso de Esperanto in Letchworth near London, where the AGM will be taking place.
