CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS

EUROPEAN YOUTH CONFERENCE

"Young people in local and regional life: Democracy in action!"

The European Youth Conference will be held in Braga between 5th and 7th February and is co-organised by the Council of Europe's Youth Department and the Braga Youth Centre, in partnership with the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities, the Municipality of Braga, the Portuguese Institute of Sport and Youth and the European Youth Forum.

The aim of this conference is to strengthen young people's participation in decision-making at local and regional level and thus contribute to the revitalisation of democracy. It will bring together around 100 young representatives from local and regional youth councils, youth civil society and local authorities to learn about democratic youth participation practices and take part in the consultations on the revision of the European Charter on the participation of young people in local and regional life, carried out by the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities in partnership with the Joint Youth Council.

Aim and Objectives

  • To discuss the practices, challenges and opportunities of youth participation in decision-making at local and regional level, with a view to critically reflecting and learning from each other;
  • To give participants the opportunity to contribute to the revision of the European Charter on the participation of young people in local and regional life;
  • To reflect on and prepare the basis for the future implementation of the revised Charter and possible support measures for young people, local youth councils and organisations, as well as local authorities;
  • Get to know the youth reality in Braga and the municipality's youth participation initiatives;
  • Motivate participants to take steps to strengthen local youth participation following the conference.
