International Community at the 2024 Warsaw Human Dimension Conference

Statement by the International Community: Internationale Politik für junge Profis on
Youth Engagement in Democratic Processes

During our visit to the 2024 Warsaw Human Dimension Conference, the International Community NGO emphasized the crucial role of youth in shaping Europe’s democratic future. Representing 25% of the EU’s population, young people must have a voice in key democratic processes.

We highlighted the importance of youth organizations participating in election observation to promote transparency and accountability while inspiring greater engagement among their peers. This involvement fosters a deeper connection to democratic systems and encourages advocacy for positive change.

The International Community remains committed to building a more inclusive, youth-driven democracy. Read our full statement below to learn more about our vision and recommendations from the conference.
