The project will give the viewers and listeners of the TV-Radio Company “Rioni” an opportunity to understand the role of young people in the development process of the country, learn about specific situations, raise awareness, and prioritize the aspects of personal development and realization to grasp civil and social responsibility, that they represent an important force in the process of sustainable democratic and socio-economic development of the country, taking into account the European value.

In many cases, is not possible to identify the needs of young people, which is caused by a number of factors, one of which is less communication with the local self-government. Young people rarely have the opportunity to reveal their potential, become self-sufficient, promote personal growth and integrate into society. The discussion panel created within the project will help young people to find solutions to existing problems.

It is important to strengthen the coordination of youth employment and entrepreneurship, improve youth awareness and access to modern technologies, etc. so that they have the opportunity to reveal their maximum potential.

Young people represent a serious force in the process of sustainable democratic and socio-economic development of the country. In order to realize their potential, it is necessary for the state to respond to the existing challenges, taking into account the recommendations of the European Union. Strong and responsible youth is an important link in the process of effective governance of the country.
