The commitment of young people in politics is becoming increasingly important. Therefore, the German Bundestag invites you to an exciting youth media workshop in the heart of Berlin. From November 2 to 8, 2025, young people between the ages of 16 and 20 can take action there to develop their own content and to exchange ideas with politicians. Under the motto "Your today, our morning - how do we shape generation justice?" The workshop relies on the participation and ideas of young people. It is about hearing their perspectives and getting a better understanding of everyday political life.
