backstage.li – A Youth Participation Platform from Liechtenstein
The platform backstage.li by aha – Youth Information Liechtenstein offers a creative space for young people to explore topics that matter to them, share their perspectives, and actively participate in youth information work.
At the heart of the platform is the “backstage” youth podcast, created by young people – for young people. From topic selection and interviewing to production and publishing, the entire process is youth-led. Since its launch in 2021, over 50 episodes have been produced, covering a wide range of topics, including mental health, activism, and international experiences.
Young people can also contribute blog posts, event tips, or creative projects to the platform – turning information consumption into active participation.
backstage.li is a great example of how youth information can become a collaborative and empowering process. It promotes media literacy, participation, and expression – and it’s a transferable format that other youth information services across Europe could easily adapt.
