Bruxitizen in brief: 

Since 2012, as part of its project Bruxitizen, which will take place between October 2022 and May 2023, Agence Alter has been offering young people from secondary and higher education institutions the opportunity to debate social issues. Bruxitizen consists of workshops and debates to learn about and compare points of view and encourage encounters between different social actors, different generations, etc. Bruxitizen is also a participatory and citizen journalism system that enables young people to learn about journalistic techniques.

All connected by the rush of things. We are all aware that something is happening that is beyond us. 
 
On the trail of a common world: what is different in each of us but what we all have within us.

Bruxitizen?
For the 10th edition of the Bruxitizen project, which will take place from October 2022 to May 2023, Agence Alter is offering young people from secondary and higher education institutions the opportunity to debate social issues. Bruxitizen is a set of workshops and debates to initiate and confront points of view and encourage encounters between different social actors and different generations. It is also a mechanism of participation and citizen journalism that offers young people an opportunity to learn journalistic techniques.

Youth participation is the focus of this edition.
2022 is the European Year of Youth. According to the European Union, it is an opportunity to "highlight the importance of youth in building a better future: greener, more inclusive and digital". As the conference on the future of Europe draws to a close, hundreds of young people have been invited to discuss their participation in public life and reflect on where they want to be.

Today's young people are tomorrow's adults. Their active participation is necessary to create a more democratic, more inclusive and more inclusive society. Participation is also a fundamental right acknowledged by the International Convention on the Rights of the Child.

The 2022/23 edition of the Bruxitizen project is about participation and the place of young people in the democratic and political space:

• Youth participation as a voice of youth and involvement in decision-making
• Youth participation as civic action and youth activism

To launch this new edition and its reflections, we invite you to take part in the roundtable that will take place on Friday 28 October, from 18:00 to 19:30, at the University Saint-Louis - room 1200 (access via Saint-Louis car park) Rue Marais 119, 1000 Brussels.

This is a public event open to all, where three speakers will share their experiences and views on the topic of participation:

Magali Plovie, MP of the Brussels Capital Region and municipal councillor of ECOLO

Véronique De Thier, policy officer of the Federation of Parents and Parents' Associations of Official Education (Fapéo)

Selen Onur, European Youth Dialogue delegate for the Youth Forum

RADIO TOUT-LE-TEMPS, BNA-BBOT : :

On February 24, 2022, the Brussels organization BNA-BBOT launched a new sound platform including, in addition to a set of artistic projects carried out on the territory of the city, a Database, a Sound Map and a Radio: Radio tout-le-temps. Radio tout-le-temps is a webradio that broadcast continuously random fragments of BNA-BBOT’s database, but can also be programmed or curated in a more specific way. It is an open platform in which citizens, artists and organisations can participate. Our database contains 26,000 sound fragments. No one has ever listened to the entire collection it houses. To listen to it all, an individual would have to devote 1,458 hours to it, or approximately 61 days and nights, without interruption. radio tout-le-temps offers this sound collection a place for sharing and spontaneous narratives, created from the random linking of isolated stories, which then form a new narrative.
