Youth Voice of
Cyprus: Structured
Dialogue with young
people
The Eurodesk Cyprus asked the Youth Officer, Stella Roussou how the
structured dialogue endorse the youth participation.
The young people have the opportunity to pose their views on topics that directly concern
them and challenges they may face, influencing the youth policy by participating in
Structured Dialogue (SD) consultations and being involved in the preparation of the guiding
questions of each Presidential country. The guiding questions are prepared under the coordination of the National Youth Councils. Consequently, the political decision they derived
through that process are more direct regarding the reality of the young people, since they
reflect their own views, positions and expectations.

5.What good practices does your country / region / community / organization use to boost social inclusion and
participation of all young people? What good practices concern young people with migrant background specifically?
2.Support of Youth and Youth NGOs and recognition of their work and contribution
Young people and youth organizations should/need to be involved in the development, implementation and
evaluation of all policies especially the ones which affect them. By taking into account the voice of young people in
decision making and in the shaping of policies, more meaningful and sustainable solutions pertaining to the
challenges young people face, as well as to various societal problems can be found.
Youth organizations role is to provide a concrete representation of the interests of young people. Through their
actions, they can support the establishment of inclusive societies where all young people, including young people
with migrant background, are supported, motivated and encouraged to become active and engaged citizens.
Furthermore, youth organizations can contribute in promoting social inclusion strategies and in advocating for
policies which enhance the participation of young people with fewer opportunities such as young people with migrant
background.
At the same time, through their participation in youth organizations, young people with migrant background can
enhance their knowledge, skills and competences. Non formal and informal learning such as the one provided by
youth organizations has a key role to play as a means of supporting their social and economic inclusion in the wider
society.
6.How can youth organizations contribute to the social inclusion of young people in general and those with migrant
background or from other socially excluded groups in particular?
7.How could youth organizations be supported in their work for the inclusion of young people in general and those
with migrant background or from other socially excluded groups in particular?
