Abstract
CABRALDOS SANTOS, Luana Isabelle and HAJIME YAMAMOTO, Oswaldo. Brazilian youth on the agenda: analyzing conferences and the Youth Statute. Rev.latinoam.cienc.soc.niñez juv [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.2, pp.657-668. ISSN 1692-715X. https://doi.org/10.11600/1692715x.16201.
In view of the situation of social vulnerability and limited visibility of youth in the Brazilian social and political contexts and its norms and legislation, the objective of this article is to discuss the process of young people’s political participation. To achieve this, a documentary analysis was carried out of the proposals approved in National Youth Conferences as well as the content of the sessions related to the rights of young people contained in the Statute for Youth. As results, the authors identified that there are specific demands from young people (political participation) as well as more encompassing demands that involve all of society (security, education, mobility and health). However, there are historical claims for recognition that are a long way from being transformed into policies to enforce rights, such as proposals to combat the extermination of black youth and greater political participation for young people.
