Objectives

The project focuses on strengthening the democratic participation of young people aged 16–25 by creating a platform that gives them the opportunity to present their views and ideas to decision-makers in sports and youth work, as well as to local authorities. The project involves organizing eight meetings across the country, corresponding to the locations of UMFÍ and ÍSÍ regional offices. These meetings will serve as a dialogue between young people in the regions and decision-makers. The meetings will create a platform for interaction between young people and decision-makers, fostering greater understanding and mutual respect. The goal is to reduce dropout rates from organized sports and youth activities by listening to the needs and ideas of young people. In addition, the meetings will encourage young people to participate in youth councils, and even to establish youth councils within their sports clubs or local communities. The meetings aim to empower young people to become active.
