In school, we’re told to sit quietly and copy what’s dictated to us, but we want to create, explore, and be the ones shaping the future. I’m grateful to have joined a team that believes in my potential and empowers me to actively participate.
AMPLIFY: Citizens has been a truly special experience for me. I felt deeply connected, knowing I was part of real change. It encouraged me to participate more actively and trust in the power of every action.
AMPLIFY: Citizens has been a valuable experience where I learned so much about the European Union and the importance of informed voting. I enjoyed the creative challenges that pushed me to think differently and actively engage in participatory democracy.
