The town of Rodgau offers young people the opportunity to play an active role in shaping their town. In the Children’s and Youth Parliament, children and young people aged between 12 and 17 can contribute their ideas and opinions and work together on projects. The Children’s and Youth Parliament is a forum where young people meet to discuss issues that affect them. They have the opportunity to take part in political decision-making processes and to represent their interests. The Parliament is supported by the town’s youth services and has its own budget. The young people take part in meetings and discussions, and they also represent the interests of young people to the city council. Children and young people aged between 12 and 17 can stand for election until 14 August. The election itself will take place online from 23 to 30 August. All those eligible to vote will receive a personalised QR code by post. Further information and the online registration process for candidates can be found at www.rodgau.de/kijupa.
