Italian Youth UNESCO presents Next Generation Youth Manifesto for under-35s
On March 27, 2021, the Italian Youth UNESCO Association (AIGU) unveiled the Next Generation Youth Manifesto during the third Italian Youth Forum, which was broadcast from Parma. This manifesto addresses four key themes: 'Nutrire il futuro,' 'La scuola di tutti,' 'Sei la mia città,' and 'Il New Deal della cultura.' Crafted by AIGU members amid the pandemic, the initiative involved 32 participants and attracted an audience of 400. Key proposals include a €20,000 universal inheritance for those turning 18, free entry to state museums for individuals under 35 for two years, and sustainable youth policies.
