During the recent years Latvian youth have had a marked tendency to ignore active participation insocial activities. In order to speak about the issue that is of large future importance and to addressthe generation that will form the politics of tomorrow we need to seek new forms of politicalparticipation. With reference to the above said we would like to offer a debate and training program invarious Latvian regions and a new weekly, five-episode analytical television debates program, astudio game show entitled Es varu but premjerministrs (I can be a Prime Minister) to be broadcastedon the Latvian Public Television Channel 1 – LTV1.The main objective of the project is to develop the future political generation whose activities will berooted in values such as co-responsibility, solidarity, and inter-generation collaboration.Es varu but premjerministrs will establish a political platform for young people to enter Latvian andEuropean politics.In order to choose participants we will launch a campaign for young people (aged 18 to 30) who wishto become and/or already see themselves as the next European and Latvian political leaders.Through an open call the young people will be asked to apply for a public debate program - televisiongame show (estimated number of applicants: 100 – 200). 10 participants will be selected toparticipate in the show. The show is produced as TV debates; there will also be mutual discussionsbetween the participants and current local politicians as well as European parliament deputies ofvarious generations. Problem solving and idea generation also make a part of the program. Thestrongest participant will win the title of the most competent young person in politics - The FuturePolitical LeaderDuring the selection process of the candidates as well as the training process throughout theprogram we will collaborate with our strategic partners - the German NGOs Konrad AdenauerStiftung, Goethe Institut, the Lithuanian NGOs The Union of Young Social Liberals of Lithuania andYoung Christian Democrats as well as several Latvian NGOs (Dienvidlatgales NVO atbalsta centrs,Liepajas Jaunatnes centrs, biedriba Post Scriptum, nodibinajums Pievienota vertiba) in order toprepare the participats to present their ideas, defend their opinions in front of the experts andaudience etc.
