Youth Think Tank

Are you between the ages of 15 and 19 and do you live in Voorne aan Zee? Do you have ideas for making our municipality better, more fun, or more enjoyable? Then join the conversation with the mayor and city council members in the Youth Think Tank!

From fat bikes and fun activities to sports facilities: together with the other participants, you get to decide which topics will take center stage. We’d love to work with your ideas.

Video Motivation

Would you like to participate? If so, please send us a video explaining why you’d like to join by November 19, and tell us what you’d like to change in our community.

You can read more about this at the bottom of the page under "Sign Up."

Here's how it works

During the first session, you’ll meet the other participants. Together, you’ll choose four topics to explore further. Four more sessions will follow in 2027. Each session will focus on a single topic. We’ll announce the dates for 2027 at a later time.

Upon completion of the program, you'll receive a certificate of participation. A great addition to your resume!

First meeting

  • Thursday, November 26.
  • From 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
  • Town Hall in Hellevoetsluis.

We get to know each other, choose the topics together, and eat pizza.
