DIALOGUE STRUCTURÉ TERRITORIAL

Territorial Structured Dialogue is a method aiming to improve the effectiveness of public policies by promoting dialogue with citizens and civil society in their design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation. Many forms of dialogue existed before the territorial structured dialogue: Youth councils, votes, demonstrations, conferences, consultations... The idea is not to question these forms of dialogue but to find an architecture for the organizers and put them in synergy. To be put shortly, to structure them!

Promoting the civic participation of young people on subjects that concern them makes it possible to develop social skills, a sense of responsibility, self-confidence, a sense of initiative, a critical spirit, as well as communication skills and negotiation, a sense of compromise, respect for the opinions of others. Understanding and participating in the development of a more transparent, open and inclusive decision-making process, thus beginning this long path towards a democracy truly built by all.
