We live in an environment in which more and more extremist minds are taking over the debate on politica l issues that are challenging our societies. They use a certain vocabulary that speaks to a majority of the population\, a simple vocabulary that ev eryone can understand. We\, as liberals\, have good solutions to the compl ex challenges we are facing but we have trouble communicating them to the outside world\, as they are as complex as the problem itself. In order to do so\, we need to review the basics of Liberalism and to know how to sell a Liberal way of life to our fellow European citizens. We need to adapt o ur know-how\, making our ideas more appealing to the majority of the popul ation we are trying to reach. It is important that Liberals get the skills to dominate the debate against the populists and to promote our liberal i deas. Young Liberals need to be equipped with the necessary practical skil ls and theoretical knowledge that will enable them to unlock their potenti al. As practical skills\, finding the best arguments for a debate\, holdin g a speech\, writing resolutions and advocating for a liberal cause. As pa rt of developing skills\, political knowledge on 3 subtopics to Liberalism will be introduced: democracy\, market economy and open societies. The pr oject will have an e-learning component through the 'My Academy' course on liberalism. An event organised by the European Liberal Forum with the sup port of LYMEC (European Liberal Youth) but also the NOVUM Institute\, Acad emy of Liberalism and Stichting Internationaal Democratisch Initiatief (St ichting IDI).
