Pizza and politics - future generations event for young people
We are running a Pizza and Politics sessions as part of our Future Generations Fortnight of activities for young people (aged 11 - 18) in Oxfordshire. It will be held in central Oxford on Friday 22 November, from 5.30pm - 8.00pm.
This will be a great opportunity for young people to:
- Learn about democratic processes, representation and how local politics works
- Understand what the council’s role is
- Think about their role in the community, representation and voting
- Discuss what they think about their life in Oxfordshire and how it could be better for future generations of young people
- Meet and chat to councillors and senior decision makers from Oxfordshire County Council and hear about their experiences
- Be part of a Q & A session with decision makers
- Meet new friends and have democracy and citizenship conversations
As a thank you, we will give young people £15 (either as a voucher or a bank payment), cover any travel expenses, and give them a certificate. The session will be run by council staff (who are DBS checked).
Pizza, other snacks and refreshments will be provided. Places are limited, so young people should register their interest to take part ASAP, here.
