Noorteparlament
Start date: Aug 1, 2014, End date: Jul 31, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

Youth Parliament is a project, which focuses on youngsters and which main objective is to involve youngsters in to national decision making processes and to give them an opportunity to have a say, when it comes to topics related to them. The idea for Youth Parliament comes from „101 Children to Toompeale“ youth forum. In March 2014, youngsters gathered to think of ways to continue with youth forum, which has been taken place for 22 years and which needs a bit renewal, as it has got a run-down. As a solution, youngsters got an idea of Youth Parliament, under which 101 delegates across Estonia will gather in Toompea to represent youngsters opinion. To do that, they first of all, carry out opened forums in each county in Estonia. Those forums are for all the youngsters, who are interested in Youth Parliament and in the topic the Youth Parliament will focus on. Also, the experts and decision-makers at local level are involved in the opened forums in county's, so we can bring to sides – youngsters and decision-makers – closer to find different ways of cooperation. As the outcome of the Youth Parliament , 101 delegates will put together a document that represents the opinions of youngsters across Estonia. This document will be presented to each party, connected to the topic, so we can hand on youngsters suggestions and ideas. Through Youth Parliament, we are trying to raise the voice of the youngsters in society and to support the attitude towards youngsters as equal partners. The main objective of this project is to create sustainable, systematic national Youth Parliament during the year activities.
