Description
Young people see the world differently and communicate about their own topics and through their own channels. The Swiss Youth Word of the Year captures this perspective and reflects current societal debates from the point of view of young people.
The Swiss Youth Word of the Year is proposed and chosen by young people and explained by them in the media — in all four national languages: German, French, Italian, and Romansh.
