In this recommendation, the Committee of Ministers calls on the member states to support and promote the implementation of the Revised European Charter on the Participation of Young People in Local and Regional Life, adopted within Recommendation 128(2003) of the Congress of Local and Regional Authorities of the Council of Europe. The document proposes several measures for doing this, e.g. by promoting an environment favourable to the active participation of young people, encouraging governments to enhance the possibilities for young people of voting age permanently and legally residing on respective territories to participate in local and regional elections, encouraging the participation of young people in associative life, particularly in youth organisations or providing information and advice to young people regarding participation.
