In recent years, there have been a growing number of initiatives promoting and strengthening youth involvement at very different levels – international, regional, national and local. However, lack of youth participation is still a serious issue around Europe where weak rates of youth implication in volunteering and the democratic processes are still obvious. The following questions will be risen by youth leaders and youth workers to address, discuss and give recommendations to raise youth participation and engagement. How young people can bring positive change in their communities and to Europe ? How to increase youth participation in democratic processes ? How to bring value in influencing decision making in policies related to youth ?
