The Vaults

  • Business and entrepreneurship
  • Community and place-based action
  • Democracy and governance
  • Education and learning
  • Public services

This event seeks to address the growing disillusionment among young people towards politics, exploring how to reignite their passion for activism, overcome barriers to participation, and empower the next generation to drive impactful change.

This evening, in partnership with the London Students Network and Democrafest, will see political leaders, journalists, students, and Fellows come together to foster debate and discussion around youth political engagement.
