UITP Youth Project
Young People: The Future of Public Transport

Public transport is one of the first tools a youngster use to discover the world and to gain independence. Their first steps on public transport facilities often make them feel self-empowered. The role of public transport in young people’s life is large, as is the presence and trust of youth in public transport organisations. Through its Youth Project, the UITP is committing itself in different ways to promote youth participation as a key to successful programming. The UITP Youth Project involves young people in relevant aspects of programming through the Youth Project Awards, and encourages dialogue between governments and youth groups through the Youth Parliaments. It also supports youth initiatives to build their organisational, advocacy and programming capacities, and provide opportunities for young people to voice their demands through collaboration with international organisations.
