>>>>>>> for

>>>>>>> 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

>>>>>>> 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.

>>>>>>> "From participation to influence: can youth revitalise democracy?"
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>> Strasbourg, Council of Europe, 3-5 November 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
