Preparatory meeting: 5-6 November 2022
Dates of the WFD: 7-9 November 2022
The theme of the 2022 edition of the World Forum for Democracy is “Democracy: A new hope?”
The core content of the Forum will consist of discussions about successful initiatives and actions, which have real-life initiatives as a starting point. General guiding principles will then be drawn to encourage and support future policy responses and field action. In this context, the Youth Department will invite 50-60 young people to participate and engage with decision-makers and opinion-formers in a reflection on the question of Democracy and Information.
