Federal Youth Session

In the National Council chamber, Alain Berset addresses the Federal Youth Session. He disputes the headline of a major daily newspaper, “Generation Bünzli”, and quotes Einstein: it is harder to crack a prejudice than an atom.

Young people vote more than those of forty years ago; they are the first generation for whom the internet and globalisation are the norm. “Politisches Engagement – wichtiger als je zuvor”.
