1st SUMMIT CONFERENCE FOR CHILDREN & YOUTH

Under the patronage of the Lord Mayor Dr. Ulrich Maly, the CHILDREN'S SUMMIT CONFERENCE took place at the "Straße der Menschenrechte" ("Street of Human Rights") in Nuremberg from September 20-30, 2018.

After four years of research work, several children and adolescents from the respective “Conference Theaters” we had conducted and implemented worldwide were invited.

The event focused on these questions: How can the children’s and adolescents’ conference thoughts be made visible locally, across Europe, and around the world? How can politicians be held accountable? How can the thoughts of children and adolescents be translated into actions so that concrete scopes emerge? How can we build a grandchildren-fit future?

Each "questionnaire" collected during the process of the Children’s Conferences was displayed, prompting fruitful discussions. Subsequently, concrete steps for implementing the ideas were discussed in various forums. After the event, each child got their own personal questionnaire back.

During the CHILDREN’S SUMMIT CONFERENCE, one project for the children involved the development and publication of a new "Questionnaire for adults". This new book will be sent to 100 selected persons picked by the participating kids. Linked to a specific exhibition date, the recipients are prompted to answer the children’s questions from their individual points of view. During the exhibition 100 pedestals will be mounted – and if recipients fail to answer and send back their questionnaire, their respective pedestal will remain vacant.
