YOUTH VOICE IN POLITICS REPORT: LAUNCH EVENT_ On Thursday 18 July, The Diana Award brought together young people and voices from across the political landscape for the Youth Voice in Politics Launch Event. This exclusive event provided an opportunity for exploration and discussion into our Youth Voice In Politics Report; what the current state of youth voice and engagement in politics in the UK looks like and how, by working with young people and political leaders, we can enable and empower more youth voice within the political landscape in the UK.

TAKE YOUNG PEOPLE SERIOUSLY: JOIN US IN OUR MISSION_ Yesterday, we launched The Diana Award’s Youth Voice in Politics Report at an exclusive event, allowing us to share our findings with key political figures as well as the very young people who the findings affect. This exploratory report looks at the state of youth voice and engagement in politics in the UK revealing a large majority feel shut out of the national debate. Youth engagement in politics is at an all-time low. Only two out of three young people registered to vote in this recent election, despite caring deeply about political issues such as; education, climate and mental health. The Diana Award is calling on the new government to close this alienation gap and take youth engagement, and our young people, seriously. Join us in our mission by downloading our Youth Voice in Politics Report now! 📝 https://loom.ly/qkarH1A #YouthVoice #YouthVoiceinPolitics

YOUTH VOICE IN POLITICS: REPORT NOW LIVE_ Existing research has shown a strained relationship between politics and young people. Youth engagement experts call for politicians to close this alienation gap by empowering young people to have their voices heard. However, little research exists into young people’s perspectives, experiences, and desires when it comes to youth voice in politics, so we need guidance and insight from them to find a solution. That is why here at The Diana Award, we are delighted to announce that our Youth Voice in Politics Report is now LIVE.
