About the event
Join us for our signature My Life My Say Democracy Cafe, where young voices will take centre stage in shaping the future of community engagement for regeneration and development. This event provides a platform for young individuals to express their perspectives on actionable strategies for authorities to better engage with youth in local communities.
The event is an opportunity for young people and high-level makers to come together. Developers, investors and businesses discuss the most will discuss the most effective methods to involve young people in community initiatives, straight from the source. With a balanced focus, the session will join authorities and youth participants, fostering meaningful dialogue and mutual understanding.
Be part of this dynamic gathering where authorities and youth collaborate to pave the way for inclusive and vibrant community development.
What is a Democracy Café?
Our globally-renowned Democracy Cafés are our reinvigoration of the 17th-century coffee house tradition where members of society would come together and discuss local issues. Our Democracy Cafés have been an incredibly effective way of bringing young people from diverse backgrounds together to talk about political issues. We’ve taken this tradition and modernised it to take place in a more casual environment, injected with fun.
