The future of North Rhine-Westphalia-participation of the youth as part of a social transformation towards sustainable development

  • The future belongs to the youth, but do they really have a say in it? Learning processes with regard to a successful socio-ecological change must start in childhood and adolescence in order to succeed in social transformation. The youth cannot be a passive part in a changing society - they have to be actively included in its design.
