I took a chance to ask young people I met at the Youth Forum about why policy makers should listen to the young people.
I did a random selection and made sure that I asked young people from different regions.
So you can also tell me why they should listen to us young people.

Policy -makers ought to listen to young people and gauge their opinions on critical issues because we inherit whatever programmes or policies are implemented. I think this is particularly important when the issues being discussed directly relate to young persons. When we (persons 15-24) are the ones who are being discussed and affected by these policies it is important that we have an input in the actual process.
Chantel, thanks very much for your take on this! I like it! “discussed and affected”
