L’intervento di Romano si è concentrato sulla domanda “cosa pensano i Giovani?” illustrando i risultati del questionario che nel mese di Marzo è stato somministrato a oltre 200 studenti del Liceo Piazzi. L’elemento più rilevante emerso è il contrasto tra la forte considerazione che i giovani hanno circa l’utilità della loro partecipazione alla vita politica (ben l’85% pensa che sia fondamentale) e la scarsa propensione a partecipare ad iniziative come quella del Consiglio dei Giovani (solo il 15% vorrebbe farne parte), che sono gli strumenti ideali per la partecipazione dei giovani alla politica. I giovani ritengono necessario agire in the political field, but are not ready to "take the field" personally and wanted someone else deal with it, due to a lack of confidence in the instruments of participation (in fact more than half said they are also willing to spend their time free for activities aimed at improving the municipality in which they live). Also, consider participating in a broader sense (participation in voluntary activities, local associations, local initiatives), although the results indicate a low propensity to associations as only 10% is part of a youth organization or volunteer work.

E 'also showed that young people are poco informati su quelle che sono le possibilità loro offerte per partecipare attivamente (quasi il 75% degli studenti non era a conoscenza dell’esistenza e del funzionamento dei Consigli Comunali dei Giovani). Su questo fronte Romano ha rimarcato come l’obiettivo principale del Progetto P.AL.CO. sia quello di fare incontrare Istituzioni, Associazioni che operano sul territorio e Giovani per rimediare a questa mancanza di informazione e attivare un circolo virtuoso di partecipazione e condivisione delle informazioni.

L’Assessore Prestipino ha infine marcato l’importanza del Piano Locale Giovani connessa al bisogno di incentivare la partecipazione politica dei giovani, lodando iniziative come to P.AL.CO. designed to encourage exactly this issue. He urged students to take advantage of the instrument of the Youth Council, an ideal place to decide personally on things that affect themselves, assuring them that "if you do not personally take care there will be someone else who will do so in their place, and not necessarily do it well. " The Councillor went on to leave the floor for students to hear their views both on participation in general and the Youth Councils in particular.

The conference was concluded with a discussion among participants during which students were able to bring out doubts and questions about the procedures for activation and operation some aspects of the Youth Council, open issues within their communities, different opinions about how to participate, and also of considerable interest to this initiative.
