Greece suffers not only from the worst financial crisis in its history, but also from a social catastrophe deeply intertwined with the sovereign debt crisis. Unmistakably, it is the Greek youth which is most affected by the consequences of a failed political approach of the past. 

Greece is at a crossroads where major decisions must be taken. It is the firm belief of most young people that the current situation can only be overcome with the support of a self-responsible, proactive generation of young Greeks willing to change the country for the better. New political ethics and a liberal, reform oriented mentality will be the pillars of this progress and development. And especially young people have lots of ideas about how to facilitate happen.

Instead of talking "about" young people, our distinguished main speakers rather talked "with" them. What are their ideas for Greece? What proposals do they make, which reforms do they consider the most urgent?
