- Tell Those in Charge, Transdisciplinary ReportPublication . Brighenti, Sara; Afonso, Lígia; Santos, MiguelThis Transdisciplinary Report is published in the context of the Youth Addendum to the Porto Santo Charter, as a support document which summarises and integrates the proposals of the young people who took part in the ‘Tell those in Charge’ consultation method. After implementing this method of listening to young representatives across 10 European countries, 23 reports emerged, offering the young people’s perspective on what culture is and how their peers can ignite it. The collected data was viewed as a unique sample representing diverse youth living in Europe and was systematically organised and categorised to achieve actionable insights. This data was then categorised into the three scales of the Porto Santo Charter, as well as in different analytical dimensions, which served to build a critical and interpretative analysis of young people's proposals. The process involved a sociodemographic characterization of the participants and an analysis of their concepts of culture. Then their own positions regarding culture were explored, and the barriers to and promoters of cultural participation that young people recognise from their experiences were identified. Finally, the recommendations presented in the reports were systematised and analysed, enabling their organisation into concrete (actions) and abstract (proposals) recommendations. The transdisciplinary report not only synthesises the results obtained in these workshops but also aligns them with the existing principles of the Porto Santo Charter. In addition, it also incorporates analysis of the reports from the Youth-Action-Culture Conference observers, as well as reference literature on this subject in the European sphere, which is the context for the reports. Predominant tensions in the fields of power and hierarchy were highlighted, with a clear aversion to hierarchical constructions of culture and distrust of current political models. The youngsters' reflections reveal concerns about socio-economic and territorial inequalities and the difficulties regarding access of cultural institutions or in building an artistic career path, as well as the acknowledgement of the role of schools and education, thereby demonstrating the importance of introducing transformation in these contexts, and in the creation of safe spaces for youth participation. The participants demand their views are taken into account and propose broad and specific resolutions in diverse fields as ways of expanding youth participation and culture. Showing a great desire to participate and to contribute, young people want to be active agents of change. New paradigms of decision-making and action must be developed for the implementation of bottom-up participatory methods, so that their involvement may be equitable and truly democratic.
