It is election year. Many young people get to vote for the 1^st time, while others are getting ready to be 1^st time voters. So let’s familiarize ourselves with voting processes to make sure we are being heard.

And for those who are not yet eligible to vote – what avenues can they take to make their voice heard in a democracy? This Youth Exchange aims to bring young people from different countries together to help them explore the roads to political participation and learn from each other.

Costs, accommodation, catering and supervision:

Participation in an international youth exchange at the European Youth Education Center Magdeburg is free of charge. Accommodation in shared rooms and full board are included. Underage participants are supervised by their team leaders or pedagogical staff of the EJBM.

Topic, Learning Goals and Methods:

This Youth Exchange aims to bring young people together to explore different avenues of democratic participation - even for those that are not (yet) eligible to vote. We also want to familiarize young people with democratic processes in general.

General information about Youth Exchanges:

Youth exchanges are dynamic programs that bring together young people from different countries to share experiences, ideas, and cultures. Through these exchanges, participants engage in various activities, workshops, and projects that promote cross-cultural understanding, personal growth, and the development of essential life skills.

By fostering international friendships and collaboration, youth exchanges inspire a sense of unity, open-mindedness, and european/global citizenship among the next generation, preparing them to be active contributors to a diverse and interconnected world.

The EJBM regularly offers various international youth exchanges in Magdeburg with different topics and learning objectives.
