Parliamentary engagement with youth

Across the world, young people are under-represented both as elected representatives in Parliaments and in the policy debates that impact youth.

A Youth Strategy
INTER PARES developed a Strategy providing a framework through which the project will support the engagement of partner Parliaments with youth.

INTER PARES' Strategy focuses on young people aged 15 to 30.

Genuine Inclusion means ensuring that young people’s voices, needs and interests are considered throughout the policy processes.
