Strengthening Youth Participation in Democratic Governance
Progress on this issue

Completed two sessions of MP Youth Interaction
To:
Young Citizens of Nepal,
Young people represent one of Nepal's greatest strengths, yet many continue to have limited opportunities to engage directly with policymakers and contribute to public decision-making. Strengthening democracy requires regular and meaningful dialogue between citizens and their elected representatives.
Through the MP Youth Interaction Series, I have sought to create a platform where young people can openly discuss issues such as access to information, government responsiveness, civic participation, and public expectations. These conversations encourage solution-oriented engagement and help ensure that policymaking is informed by the perspectives and experiences of young citizens. This initiative promotes a more participatory democracy by strengthening trust, dialogue, and collaboration between citizens and their representatives. It reflects the belief that meaningful public engagement leads to more responsive governance and better policymaking.
