Details
Voter turnout has been declining since the 1950s, posing a major challenge to democracies around the world. Various studies consistently show alarmingly low voter turnout among young people at different levels and in different regions in all EU Member states. The gap between younger and older voters has widened significantly across the democratic world, indicating low political participation among young people, not only in elections but also in institutional politics. This event will analyse how to improve and facilitate youth involvement ahead of the upcoming European elections, on 6-9 June 2024.
