Youth Advisory Councils
The Youth Advisory Councils are bodies linked to the National Council of Intergenerational Equality that are developed under the methodology of deliberative bodies that are oriented to involve the citizens in the cycle of public policies. These councils are made up of subjects of rights of both social organizations and citizens in general. For the appointment of representatives, a process of election is carried out by consensus in local assemblies, this election is performed independently in each locality according to the periods established by the Cantonal Council for the Protection of Rights, with the technical support of the National Council for intergenerational equality.
