Youth participation in public and political life is vital for the functioning of our societies and the health of our democracies.
This event will explore how youth can and do play a key role in decision making. We will also explore why leaders should rule for current youth and future generations. If you have an interest in discovering how your voice can be amplified, not just in politics but in any other area of life, this event is a must for you.
This event will firstly explore how Young European Ambassadors build international connections among youth and bring them into the decision making arena.
Following this, we will have the pleasure to talk to experts in the field about why it is important to advocate for future generations now, and what we can do to ensure that our voices are heard by the authorities.
After this fireside chat, and having the opportunity to ask questions to the speakers, we will have the chance to turn ideas into action in a workshop facilitated by a Young European Ambassador with abundant experience in youth participation.
Participants will, after the event, receive a certificate of participation. This event presents itself as a great opportunity to network and meet highly motivated individuals. The skills learned this evening will be helpful for the rest of your careers, no matter the field.
