    1st meeting of the Think Tank on Youth Participation 3-4 April 2018 Tallinn, Estonia INTRODUCING THE THINKERS Facilitator: Alex Farrow (United Kingdom) Alex supports civil society in the UK and around the world, attempting to improve the lives of communities through knowledge, training and expression. Building on his global work with activists and youth movements internationally, Alex is currently working at the National Council of Voluntary Organisations in England, supporting voluntary organisations to strengthen their strategy and evaluate their impact. Alex's area of interest are youth participation, policy and practice. He worked for the National Youth Agency and the British Youth Council, as well as freelancing extensively with organisations in the youth development sector. He has undertaken numerous research projects on youth participation, including with Restless Development, Commonwealth Secretariat, SALTO, and UNICEF. At Youth Policy Labs, Alex led on consultancy projects, supporting national governments and UN agencies to design, implement and evaluate national youth policies, through research, training and events. Alex is a campaigner - mostly on climate change, child rights and young people - and is active in UK politics. He is currently a trustee of Girlguiding UK and a member of the CIVICUS Youth Action Team. Airi-Alina Allaste (Estonia) I am professor of sociology specialising in youth studies. For the past fifteen years I have been investigating young people’s participation including political participation, belonging to subcultures, impact of mobility and informal education to participation etc. The focus of the studies has been on the meanings that young people attribute to their participation, which has been analysed in the wider social context.

UK results 6. SD EU recommendations - EU Youth Goals 7. What’s next?/Advocacy efforts/Get involved! 1. Background The British Youth Council believes that young people are agents of social change. As the national youth council of the UK we bring young people together to find their voice and use it for social and political change. We support young people to get involved in their communities and democracy locally, nationally and internationally, making a difference as volunteers, campaigners, decision-makers and leaders. The UK Young Ambassadors programme gives young people in the UK a voice on an international platform. UK Young Ambassadors provide a bridge between young people in the UK and people making decisions around the world. Youth In Europe - What’s Next? During the winter of 2017, the UK Young Ambassadors, supported by local groups and individuals, ran a UK wide consultation on the theme of the future of Europe. The consultation was shaped and supported by the National Working Group on Structured Dialogue, which includes representatives from Government, funders and the voluntary sector. In this report you can learn more about: • The Structured Dialogue on Youth process • The UK Young Ambassadors • Our research in the UK • Results - UK & Europe • Next steps 2. Structured Dialogue On Youth What is it ? The Structured Dialogue on Youth is a long-term consecutive process. It was established by the European Commission in order to facilitate a space where young people can interact with policy-makers from local to European level.
