The Algerian Children’s Parliament was officially inaugurated today in a ceremony held at the People’s National Assembly headquarters. The Speaker of the People’s National Assembly, Ibrahim Boughali, presided over the event.
This inauguration follows the completion of the election process for the Speaker of the Children’s Parliament, their deputies, and members of the parliamentary committee offices. The elections took place yesterday, Sunday, at the Mazafran Hotel in Algiers.
The establishment of the Children’s Parliament represents a significant step in promoting civic engagement and empowering young voices within Algeria. It provides a platform for children to express their opinions, participate in discussions on issues affecting them, and learn about the democratic process.
The initiative aims to foster a sense of responsibility and encourage active citizenship among young Algerians. The Children’s Parliament is expected to contribute to a more inclusive and participatory society, where the perspectives of children are valued and considered in policy-making.
The newly elected members of the Children’s Parliament will now embark on their roles, representing the interests and concerns of their peers across the country. Their work will involve engaging with government officials, participating in debates, and proposing solutions to challenges facing Algerian children. The parliament is seen as important for youth development.
DZWatch will continue to follow the activities of the Algerian Children’s Parliament and provide updates on its progress and impact on the lives of young people in Algeria.
