At local and regional level, active participation of young people in decision making and actions is essential if we are to build more democratic, inclusive and cohesive societies. However, participation in the democratic life of any community is about more than voting or standing for election, although these are important elements.
Participation and active citizenship is about having the right, the means, the space and the opportunity and where necessary the support to participate in and influence decision taking and being engaged in actions and activities so as to contribute to building a better society.
Within its priority "participation and active citizenship" the Council of Europe's Directorate of Youth and Sport will organise an international training course on youth participation and the revised European Charter on the participation of young people in local and regional life that will be held at the EYCS from 23 March - 1 April 2007.
The target group are experienced and active youth workers/leaders and governmental representatives dealing with youth.

I am Andrei Yakushonok,
I am Andrei Yakushonok, Belarus, 26. I try to create our youth more democratic and tolerance, because there is an authoritarian and dictatorial regime in our country. We live as in USSR. I try to be the free journalist in internet media, because the others medias are only state one and not independent. Since October until December 2006, I had lived and studied in Czech Republic (Erasmus/Socrates), had a pleasure opportunity to meet, cooperate, contact with youth from around the world such as Czech, Slovakia, German, Turkey, Spain, Lithuania, Poland – you all the greatest and happiest youth all over the world. I enjoyed that time. I will be very glad to discuss and discover the people from different countries. Greetings from Belarus!
