If youngsters have the opportunity to be part of youth projects, youth workers must not forget to link the project to the local environment to expect political changes. Otherwise youngsters will experiment new skills and share experiences of debate and innovating methods without reaching the main target: the political level.
To bring changes in the system, we should not forget to make the connection between the different elements of the system, otherwise we change one element without influence on the rest of the actors. That’s why youth workers have to work in network, and share experience at the different levels of the participation: local to global system. Democraty is its own worst enemy.
