Between Hope and Disillusion This year’s Megatrends lecture, jointly organized by CASSIS, EADI and Megatrends Afrika (IDOS) discusses political attitudes and participation of young people in Africa and Europe by asking: How do young people act and engage in an era of upheaval? How does the political establishment address young peoples’ concerns, especially in Africa, where young people constitute the biggest electoral group? Are we witnessing new forms of lasting political engagement or do we enter an age of disillusion? https://www.cassis.uni-bonn.de/en/events/upcoming-events/between-hope-and-disillusion https://www.cassis.uni-bonn.de/@@site-logo/308565-st-original.jpg
