Youthful Cities Commission meeting, Riga

2022-05-18 8:00 am to 2022-05-20 5:00 pm

The open meeting of the UBC Youthful Cities Commission that will take place in Riga, Latvia, 18-20 May 2022.

The main focus of this year’s meeting is to explore what a youth-friendly municipality is and how all our cities can become more youth-friendly, because, after all, youth potential is city potential.

Discussions and workshops will include such topics as:

  • innovative participation forms of young people (showcasing experience story from European Youth Capital 2021 – Klaipeda);
  • local communities as a tool for reaching out to youth (showcasing Riga’s practices of street-based youth work and society-driven revitalisation of empty spaces);
  • measuring social impact of youth work (this part of the programme will be featured by Latvian Youth Council that has just conducted a respective research together with their international partners).

Registration until 13 May:
