To bring youth voices into the policy consultation process, the Field of Dialogue Foundation (Fundacja Pole Dialogu), with support from People Powered’s Digital Democracy Accelerator (DDA), launched a bold initiative, the first national-level Youth Citizens’ Assembly in Poland’s history.
The Assembly focus on digital policies aimed at protecting youth. The teen participants address questions like: What online content do young people find harmful? What role should government, schools, and families play in creating safer digital spaces? And what kinds of regulations do youth believe are necessary in digital spaces to protect their well-being and mental health? Ultimately, they would make a series of policy recommendations, which the Ministry of Digital Affairs agreed in advance to review, respond to, and, hopefully, integrate into their policies.
