New Democracy Ideas Under Way – Lindholmen Democracy Talks

Do not miss when 24 blazing 18-24-olds from 15 countries propose how to energize democracy!

The International Youth Conference is the core annual event of the IYTT. During four hectic days, 24 conference participants, selected from 184 applications submitted to us during the summer, are discussing, deliberating and bringing out their best ideas on the strengthening of democracy. This very special edition of Lindholmen Democracy Talks is the grand finale of this year’s conference that presents our youth’s democracy promoting proposals.

The presentation will be challenged by a distinguished panel of scholars and experts. Also, we hope that you, the audience, will bring your best questions and reflections and join us in an open discussion of the challenges and possibilities of the open society.
