📋 Tender Overview
Nine young people from 14 to 17 years old sit on the new youth panel for the work with the leisure card. They will provide advice to the Ministry of Children and Family Affairs on how a leisure card scheme can achieve the goal of more children and young people being allowed to participate in organized leisure activities.The panel had its first meeting in Oslo. State Secretary in the Ministry of Children and Family Affairs Jorunn Hallarker Heggelund also participated.I am so inspired by meeting these young people and their right perspective. A leisure card will benefit children and young people between the ages of 6 and 18 and then we are completely dependent on being right away from the young people themselves. We want to create a scheme that is as accurate as possible and which means that all children and young people in Norway can participate in a leisure activity says the State Secretary.The youth panel will take up the work now and will have meetings throughout the autumn. The young people who have been elected show great commitment to all children and young people having equal opportunities to participate in leisure activities. Many have themselves contributed to organizing leisure and social activities for children and young people.I think it is very rewarding and I feel that I am helping to make a difference. I think the leisure card will be good for including young people who have fallen outside. And then it is important to have young people because it is up to us says 17-year-old Lasse Hordnes who is one of the participants in the panel.
