THE TEAM

Youth participation is not an end in itself, but a means of achieving positive changes in young people's lives and of building a better society. In recent years a growing number of initiatives promoting and strengthening youth involvement at different levels –international, regional, national and local – have emerged.
The manual Have your say! answers questions such as “What is real youth participation? What do I do with the charter? Why should I be interested in this document?” and is targeted at youth organisations and young people who want to have their say as well as at governmental representatives who want to increase active youth participation.
