Valeria Andriienko reports from World of Volvo Grand Opening on April 14
20 May
What if we join the forces of an automotive company and a youth think tank in fostering democratic awareness? This visionary collaboration was brought to life on the 14th of April, when the International Youth Think Tank became a part of the Grand Opening of World of Volvo.
An IYTT roll-up, the four IYTT Youth Fellows Lisa Lundgren, Petter Rodebjer, Jouman Tafnkji, and me along with the IYTT manager Urban were among the first things that more than 3 000 visitors saw after having entered a massive tree-like building of World of Volvo.
– Do you want to talk about democracy?
– No.
This was the most common conversation that took place on that day. Even after a small talk visitor mainly were not eager to sit down and answer our questions.
A highlight of the day were teenagers and a child, who answered our questions enthusiastically.
Our talk companions were coming from Sweden and India.
Have a sneak peek into our conversations through word clouds.
Best regards,
Valeria Andriienko, Youth Fellow, IYTT
