  • YDE Manifesto
    May 5 2024

    This episode was recorded in Rome, where the Young European Democrats were organizing their Europe @ Home event.

    Amazing opportunity to present their Manifesto to young people from all over the continent who came for the occasion.

    Along workshops and debate sessions, IED President Francesco Rutelli and MEP Sandro Gozi gave passionate speeches.

    An opportunity for those dedicated public servants to warn the Young Democrats to the challenges of this era.

    Francesco Rutelli exhorted them to "Be Brave" before the raise of defiance and hatred. While MEP Gozi underlined the acceleration of history that take older generation by surprise.


    In this podcast I have asked young representatives from Italy, Germany and France the measure from the YDE Manifesto that most concerned them, as well as how do they see the role of the EU in the world before the 2024 elections :


    • Francesca Pistoni from Italia Viva
    • Ludwig Diegmeyer from Freie Wehler
    • Nolwen Pelven from Jeunes avec Macron

  • S2 Episode 6: What if digital citizen participatory practices were the key to restore trust in political processes?
    Jan 11 2022
    Representative democracy is in crisis. Public confidence in the accountability of democratic representation has experienced a steady decline, both within and outside the EU. For many citizens, political actors are distant figures and legislative processes appear too complex to follow and control. However, grassroots participatory democracy initiatives have mushroomed across Europe. This phenomenon speaks to a more promising reality. We have discussed it with a Research from Croatia, Iva Paska, a sociologist and lecturer at the University of the North in Croatia and Vincent Chauvet, Mayor of Autun, in central France and member of the European Committee of the Regions.
