compulsory politics education in high schools
Background
we'd like the government to introduce some form of compulsory politics education into high schools.
Additional details
Too often today, we see young people who are not only not politically active but also not politically aware. I believe that it is vital to have young and informed citizens, this education shall not only update young people but also hopefully motivate them to vote when they turn 18, which should increase voter turnout. I find it appalling that students don't know about current political affairs, this needs to change and this is the way!
