Rebuilding Trust from the Ground Up: Pedro Pereira da Silva on Democracy, AI, and Local Leadership
Description
In this episode of YEPs on the Ground, we welcome Pedro Pereira da Silva, a Young Elected Politician from Vila do Conde, Portugal, and a member of the EPP Group in the European Committee of the Regions.
Pedro takes us through his journey in local politics and shares a powerful reflection on how trust in democracy is built or lost; at the local level. From citizen participation and political accountability to the potential of AI-based technologies for inclusive governance, we explore how digital innovation and democratic resilience can go hand in hand.
Tune in for an insightful discussion on the crisis of trust in European institutions, what can be done at the municipal level to revive civic engagement, and how youth and technology can help shape the future of public life in Europe.
