Protected: NextGen DIY: Democracy, Innovation, and Youth
Young people aren’t turning away from democracy — they’re reinventing it.
The common narrative says youth are disengaged. Our work — and their lived experience — shows the opposite. Around the world, young leaders are building new civic spaces, breaking down institutional barriers, and designing democratic tools that match their realities and values.
NextGen DIY (Democracy, Innovation & Youth) is the Governance Action Hub’s exploration to support that energy: a space where youth innovators, activists, creatives, and political leaders prototype new ways to make democracy more accessible, more inclusive, and more meaningful.
