Introducing the Charter on youth participation

The Council of Europe works hard to encourage young people to play an active role in strengthening civil society in Europe. It has developed the following tools to promote the participation of young people:

+ the system of co-management, through which the representatives of youth organisations and governments work together on the formulation and implementation of the Council of Europe youth policy;

+ the European Youth Campaign “All Different – All Equal”, where youth participation is one of the main themes (these themes are: diversity, human rights, participation);

+ the Revised Charter on the Participation of Young People in Local and Regional Life.
