In this episode, Hannah and Julia speak with the founders of Our Rule of Law (ORoL) Foundation about democracy, what it means to be the youngest voice t in the room and how youth can make a real impact. We had a pleasure to welcome Anna, Elene and Zuzanna, co-founders of ORoL Foundation, an organisation aiming to mobilise youth towards developing Pan-European policy solutions addressing the rule of law and democracy crisis. Our Rule of Law was founded in 2021, when Anna, Elene and Zuzanna were students at the University of Groningen. Inspired by a lecture on the rule of law crisis in Poland, they decided to continue the discussion with their Professor John Morijn and soon after, Our Rule of Law was born. Today, the organisation is a registered NGO in the Netherlands, bringing together young people who are dedicated to foster and understand the foundations of democracy. Since 2021, Our Rule of Law mobilized youth in various projects, such as the Vote4OurRuleofLaw (Vote4ORoL) Fellowship, designed to encourage young Europeans to engage more actively in the elections to the European Parliament .In September 2025, the organisation published ‘Our Democracy Report’ written by Young Democracy Rapportours. The report is a joint effort of over 60 young researchers from 16 Member States, including Austria, as well as Ukraine. Listen to this episode to learn what it’s like to build a student-led organisation and how youth can really make an impact in European policy-making. We also discuss the findings of the ‘Our Democracy Report’ and Anna, Elene and Zuzanna share their stories and tips. We hope this episode can be both educational and inspiring!
