Younison is a 'pressure platform' designed to influence European policy makers and help us, artists and content creators, take control of our destinies. Too often, those who profit from our creativity ignore our needs and yet claim to speak on our behalf. Younison is here to change this trend and to give artists a voice they haven't had, until now..
By collecting your visions and votes, we aim to persuade policy makers to do the right thing for our business. As part of our commitment to change the music industry, we will report on the most urgent political subjects and expose those who profit from us, without shame. By polling your views, the views of real artists and creators, we will open the debate and call for political action. Younison is what you make of it, and it is free!
Younison is a non profit policy organisation funded by donations.
Younison's mission is to modernise the collective rights management framework and ensure that all artists are accurately and efficiently rewarded for the commercialisation and use of their creative works across the EU. Support our Call for Action.
Younison (younison.eu) heads the European platform which gives a voice to artists, composers and musicians who demand that the current collective rights management system be updated and modernised. The objective is to improve transparency and the distribution of revenues gained by the exploitation of artists' works across Europe and which are collected by collecting societies on behalf of individual artists - and therefore their members.
