On September 11, Berlin will be the scene of a unique political event; elections for teenagers under 16 to choose representatives for the local parliament of Berlin. This election is not only an opportunity for teenagers to express their opinions and views, but it could also change the face of the future politics of this city.
Why Are These Elections Important?

The youth elections can be an opportunity for the emergence of innovations and new ideas that are often overlooked in traditional politics. Could this event lead to the beginning of a new era in Berlin's politics? The time to answer this question is approaching, and we must see whether the new generation of politicians will step forward or not.
