It is constantly talked about and emphasized how important it is for young people to be present in civic processes, to be interested in what is happening in the country, to participate in the development of Latvia, but when looking closely at youth events related to such processes, attendance is usually very small or with the same people. The data also indicate that the involvement of young people in civic activities in Latvia is very low. Does engagement need to be fostered and what can happen if that engagement doesn't grow? Are there any carrots that young people should be given - for example, giving young people the opportunity to vote in the European Parliament, national or local government elections from the age of 16? About this this time in the program "Neerto kipiutų tītīte" together with: Krista Asmus, lawyer of the association "Society for openness - Delna"; the head of the JEF (Young European Federalists) JEF (Young European Federalists) organization, "Klubs "Māja" - youth for a united Europe" organization, Visvaldi Knuta Bērziņš; the chairman of the Youth organization of the "Vienotība" party, Edgars Olģerts Pavlovski.
