How can young people power the future of democracy in Denmark and across Europe?

To answer that question and steer many others, Greencubator, Sustainary and Actory are bringing together two lively panel debates with passionate voices from youth-led and youth-focused organizations.

Together we will discuss how we can inspire young people to engage in solutions for societal challenges, participate in the democratic electoral process, and leave their mark in the world.

Together, we’ll dive into questions of youth engagement, civic action, and the upcoming Danish local elections. While confronting what declining voter turnout among young citizens means for the health and balance of our democracies, we will also discuss the existing pathways to increase and stimulate youth agency and engagement.

Expect sharp insights, honest dialogue, and fresh perspectives on how to build a more representative democratic future, one where young voices truly count.
