Presented by: Maria Tsinidy (Greece)
Our ideas for @Larisa
Lack of awareness of the youth about Erasmus+ project and NGOs that run it, because through projects ideas can take place.
A Youth Office where young people can be informed on how to implement and participate in ideas in the city and receive guidance info about events.

Presented by: Angeliki Kotsiopoulou (Greece)
Our ideas especially for @Larisa
In no municipality is given an annual budget dedicated to the youth.
An annual budget dedicated to youth initiatives whose selection process will also involve young people.
Young people to take advantage of the opportunity to choose an initiative and maximize the benefits of it.
Presented by: Aspa Papazisi (Greece)
Our ideas especially for @Larisa
When a youth project is being created and/or implemented, it is a fact that youth from discriminated groups lack of a chance to participate.
In order to raise their voice and participate, they should be a part of the creation process and have space to participate in.
With their participation they will make a step and they will be gradually integrated and they will not be marginalized.
Presented by:Angelos Michalopoulos (Greece)
Our ideas for @Larisa

YOU(TH) IN THE CENTER
Our ideas for @local level
In Greece there aren’t many structures for young people, especially in small cities. This kind of structures can be cultural centres, small youth centres and public
problem, because young people cannot share their ideas or make them known in the community and especially in the authority of the municipality.
Small structures for youth must be created, so as to connect immediately the policy makers with them.
We expect that if our proposal comes true, young people will have the opportunity not only to be essentially active members in their local society, but also their views will be heard.
Presented by: Angeliki Tsiakalou & Stella Papadopoulou
Our ideas for @local level
The youths are not part of decision-making, their present is not considered and may times abused. The municipalities don’t have space for youths.
Consultation groups for young people at the level of communities.
Space for youths, motivation, free speaking, capacity building. Through Action Plan to raise youth participation and youth voice.
Presented by: Sadri, Guri (Albania)
Our ideas for @local level
Stronger, easier and more effective communication between young people and decision makers. Meetings organized by teachers or school headmasters between pupils and representatives of local governance. Study visits at municipalities where young people are informed on how it works.
Hands-on knowledge on how local governance works, they meet representatives of local governance, learn about opportunities it offers, learn about local councils.

Our ideas for @local level
Low activity in youth participation accompanied by low awareness of young people about the politics within the municipality and their
Council of youth in the municipality (independent and decentralized).
The proposal intends to integrate young people in the activities related to politics, organization of events so that youngsters are more involved and more active participants in local life within the municipality.
Presented by: Stoyna Yordanova (Bulgaria)
Our ideas for @national level
Young people doesn't have the knowledge on political topics and there aren’t authorities to inform and give them the opportunity to create and improve their own youth laws.
A lesson in school or talks about this topics with their teachers to get more information and gain knowledge about the politics generally.
Through this action young people will obtain their opinion and they will be active in politics. As the time pass,more and more youngers will take part in political events.

Presented by: Krasina (Bulgaria)
Our ideas for @national level
Youngsters do not express or develop their ideas enough.
Competition to encourage youngsters to express / develop ideas.

Presented by: Tamas (Serbia)
Our ideas for @national level
The lack of a well functioning network which could connect young people with the national authorities.
Common network of university and high-school student councils that work locally & to connect with national authorities.

Our ideas for a more effective and inclusive Structured Dialogue!

conscience for democratic participants.
Presented by: Katerina Salla (Albania)
Our ideas for a more effective and inclusive Structured Dialogue!
Lots of young people don’t know the existence of youth simulations. That is because not all youths, in our days, have access to social media and internet, generally, to know about this. Television and radio don’t promote this that much! Even local or national newspapers don’t!
Youth simulation of European Union institutions for increased participation of young people, promoting peace and knowledge about the value of European Union.
More and more youth will be involved after participating in this, which obviously promote a friendly coexistance in EU. That would be an excellent start for youngsters to show to the policy makers what they really deserve.

Presented by: Enki (Albania)
Our ideas for @local level
Lack of information about problems, activities, etc.
Social media page to share programs, activities, opportunities and trainings
Young people are more informed about trainings, opportunities and activities. Social media nowadays is the fourth power in our society and having access to social media pages gives to the youth the opportunity to act, to be heard and to be counted about their different issues.

Platform with legal advisers, psychologists, and other responsibles for improving the society and to enable (not only, but also) youth to report abuse corruption, fraud and promote this platform. This anonymous way helps to open their mouths.
There will be great information, so the victims will not fell alone and unprotected. The experts of this platform will actually help the intereseted. It must be presented by social media so the whole world will know it.
Presented by: Danai (Greece)
Our ideas for @national level
Many young people have talents but they don’t realize their possible development and the means to achieve them.
Cooperation with recognised people to motivate youngsters (sports, arts, science, etc.) Organising meetings,events, where distinguished people can present their experience and give chance (financial, educational) to talented people.
More talented people who succeeded in their field.

Presented by: Iskra (Bulgaria)
Our ideas for @European level

Our ideas for a more effective and inclusive Structured Dialogue!
The problem is that the youth have no desire to know what actually is structured dialogue.
Raising awareness about what structured dialogue is through youth-friendly channels, starting from teenage years, to convince the youth that structured dialogue is very useful and helpful for them.
Everyone from us will try to convince youth and the main problem will disappear.
Presented by: Uni Belchova (Bulgaria)
Our ideas for a more effective and inclusive Structured Dialogue!
People, especially young folk from rural areas/ marginalized communities/ ethnic colonies are lacking information on who are the officials that represent them, and how to contact them to discuss the problems.

platforms and means to use
Presented by: Tina (Serbia)
Our ideas for a more effective and inclusive Structured Dialogue!
Structured dialogue is not known by the society.
We propose to open physical information points, in order to present and develop it as much as possible.
If there are some offices, which work on structure dialogue such as presenting, informing and discussing, it will be much more accessible by the people.
Presented by: Giounous Onmpasi (Greece)

Lack of info points
Cooperation with phone - companies to inform youth for events with SMS (e.g. Vodafone Student)

Presented by:Nevena Stojkovic (Serbia)
Our ideas for a more effective and inclusive Structured Dialogue!
The youth don’t have the same interest and trust in everyone.

Informing the youth about structured dialogue will be easier and more effective from someone they will listen to.

Presented by: Angeliki Makellaraki (Greece)
Our ideas for @local level
Uneducated young people have fewer skills and opportunities to grow as human beings, find a good job and are more vulnerable to criminality.
A series of well structured educational workshops, professional consulting and mentoring for free for young people that have dropped out of school in the local cultural centre.
Young people with fewer opportunities will receive support, they will cultivate both personal and professional skills, they will have their sense of self-efficacy and self-confidence elevated, grow as persons, and have an equal access to higher education, while boosting their active citizenship at the same time.
Presented by: Eleni
Our ideas for @local level
After school the youngest doesn’t have enough space for free time, missing he activites and the other ways of socialisation.

Presented by: Marton Gyetvai (Serbia)
Our ideas for @national level
In one country live many ethnic groups and this leads to no acceptance, discrimination, hate, segregation of the majority toward the minority.

It brings communities closer, it allows them to know and share
discrimination, hate and segregation.
