A Week of Learning and Engagement
From Monday, 23 June, to Friday, 27 June, students will be welcomed to the CIVICA campus at SNSPA in Bucharest, where a structured program of activities will aim to foster knowledge exchange, debate, and collaboration.
Theme: Youth Power! Looking into a More Inclusive Future
This year's edition will focus on the central role of youth in driving positive change across Europe. The discussions and activities will revolve around three key questions:
- Europe Relies on Youth becoming more interested and engaged in local policymaking. Government needs to boost trust in its strategic thinking and rapidly adapt to the increasing turbulent environment, to better serve the youth. Our businesses need the creativeness, ambition and energy of the youth. Is Youth up to the task?
- Europe Learns to Speak Youth: European, national and local policies need to be clear and transparent. Today and tomorrow, Youth is asked to accept, implement and monitor policies. Are our governments ready to engage Youth in a more meaningful way?
- Europe Needs Youth: Let’s Give It a Plan! Moving beyond discussions, this edition of CIVICA European Week will seek to develop actionable strategies to ensure youth participation is more than just symbolic.
The full program will feature expert-led workshops, interactive discussions, and networking opportunities to equip participants with the tools and knowledge necessary to make a real impact.
