FES Lebanon: Presentation of the FES MENA Youth Study

What do young people across the Middle East and North Africa region think? What inspires them, what holds them back—and how are they reshaping the region’s political landscape? These questions took center stage at the launch of our latest book in the German Orient-Institute in Beirut. The FES MENA Youth Study is more than just a publication, it’s a platform for youth voices across the region. The event brought together researchers, activists, and young changemakers to unpack powerful findings on youth political engagement, voting behavior, protest movements, and the complex journey from hope to disillusionment. Grounded in real stories and regional data, the discussion offered fresh insight into how the next generation is redefining political participation in MENA.
