Leuven is famous for its vibrant student community, so naturally, our festival week includes events made especially for and by students. We're excited to announce Future Voices – a key evening event where young people connect with various policymakers. With TV presenter Tim Hofman as a guest and Amir Bachrouri, known for his impactful youth advocacy, as the moderator, this event is set to be truly thrilling!

Future Voices is more than just an event, it's a movement crafted specifically for young minds at the FTI and& Festival. This evening isn't about another talk, it's a deep dive into the aspirations and concerns of the next generation. Here, we're changing the game: young people lead the conversation, and policymakers listen. It's a space where the digital voices of youth, active in their online worlds and inspired by influencers like Tim Hofman, become a powerful force in real-world dialogue.

But why is this necessary?

Imagine a world where young people feel disconnected from politics and the system, hesitant in their citizenship, feeling unheard and unrepresented. This is the challenge we're tackling. Hosted by Amir Bachrouri, known for his dedicated youth advocacy, Future Voices aims to bridge this gap. We're transforming digital engagement into tangible outcomes, fostering renewed faith in democracy among young leaders.

Our Mission: Voices for Change

At the core of Future Voices is our mission to bring the digital narratives of young people into the real world, ensuring their ideas resonate at policy levels. We ask: How can policymakers genuinely listen to what young people feel and dream about?

The success of Future Voices will be measured by the impact of these young voices on discussions and policy-making. We're committed to validating their concerns, acknowledging their ideas, and weaving them into our central theme: ‘For Future Generations.’
