A FUTURE GENERATIONS COUNCIL
A Proposal on Intergenerationally Equitable Policy-Making for the next Federal Government
August 2025
Alongside anchoring the rights of young people in the Basic Law, the next federal government should appoint a Future Generations Council made up of young people. This body would broadly review social, fiscal and climate policy initiatives, among other topics, in regard to their sustainability for future generations and have the right to slow down legislative procedures in order to open up space for renewed negotiation and policy development. The existing “Youth Check” could be an important starting point for the Future Generations Council
