> Dear Mr Bauwens,
>
> With great pleasure I would like to invite you to submit an
> application to present the “P2P Foundation” at the World Forum for
> Democracy 2014 with the title “From participation to influence: can
> youth revitalise democracy?". The third edition of the World Forum for
> Democracy, to take place on 3‐5 November 2014, will address the
> challenge of re‐building young people's trust in democracy and
> re‐shaping institutions to give youth real influence on
> decision‐making in all social arenas.
>
> The Strasbourg World Forum for Democracy is an annual gathering of
> leaders, opinion-makers, civil society activists, representatives of
> business, academia, media and professional groups to debate key
> challenges for democracies worldwide. The Forum is organised by the
> Council of Europe in partnership with the French government, the
> Alsace Region and the City of Strasbourg and a range of international
> organisations, think tanks, foundations, and other partners from the
> public and private sectors.
>
> Organisations and movements worldwide are invited to express their
> interest in presenting an example/initiative enabling youth
> participation by answering the attached questionnaire and sending it
> to forum_democracy at coe.int<mailto:forum_democracy at coe.int> by 30 April
> 2014. Successful initiatives will be identified in May-June 2014.

>
> Democracy is played out in the political institutions of society, but
> also in the multiple arenas where people come together: formal and
> informal education, the work place, sport, culture, civil society and
> increasingly, in social media via the Internet. Democracy requires
> firm and unshakeable foundations, but must be transmitted and renewed
> from generation to generation.
>
>
>
> Today, we witness among young people a rising abstention from
> electoral participation and party politics, distrust in mainstream
> media, and sometimes violent rejection of traditional embodiments of
> political power. In transition democracies, young people are at the
> forefront of movements of popular rejection of corruption and
> electoral fraud, but are conversely marginalised in the process of
> democratic consolidation. In times of economic crisis, young people
> are increasingly faced with exclusionary barriers in the “everyday
> arenas”. How to increase any democratic participation of youth through
> the labour market when employment opportunities decrease? Is education
> a real promise for prosperity and security, and is it a good vehicle
> for inclusion that extremely qualified generations now have less
> guarantee of access to the labour market, leading some to speak of a
> “lost generation”?
>
>
>
> There is a disparity between young people’s aspirations on the one
> hand and forms of engagement and the limited opportunities for
> influence on the other hand. There is also a disparity between the
> ideals of young people – such as social justice and equality – and the
> priorities of democratic decision-making. There is a mismatch between
> the long perspective youth desires to influence in order to shape
> their future and a pressure to focus on short-term obligations.
>
>
>
> Nonetheless, potential for youth influence and participation in
> democracy exists. Many young people are engaged at community and
> grassroots levels and express strong civic ideals and commitment. A
> wide range of formal participation opportunities for youth exists –
> elected student representatives, local youth councils, youth
> parliaments, youth branches of political parties etc, but their impact
> is relatively weak. It is crucial to enhance youth democratic
> involvement, not only in terms of participation (quantity) but also in
> terms of influence (quality). It would be important to identify cases
> where such structures are genuine vectors of democratic participation
> rather than an alibi, and to explore the conditions which make them
> successful. New ways of socialising and organising are being forged
> and pioneered by the young via on-line media and social networks, from
> a perspective which may challenge established models of democratic
> governance. Moreover, there are a number of successful political
> figures deeply engaged in the existing structures of representative
> democracy who try to improve the system “from within”.
>
>
>
> All these perspectives should be explored in order for societies to
> mobilise the potential of youth as actors of positive change.
