Objective of the Workshops
The results of the workshops will be discussed during the plenary assembly. The objective of the plenum is to debate the recommendations out of the various workshops and to do a voting on them. The overall resolution reflects the position of the European Tibetan Youth Parliament on the given three subjects. Detailed information will follow soon.
The wording of the proposals should represent the conclusions of the respective workshops and should reflect the general consensus of all workshop participants.
The participant was asked to indicate two preferences for the workshops in advance.
At the Youth Parliament, the participant will be able to participate in one of them.
The assembly will be guided by a chairman. He is to be elected on Saturday out of the participants.
Please contact us if you would like to run for the position of the chairman during the two days of the Second European Tibetan Youth Parliament (only for registered participants).
