Some sites that are all about decision making:


http://www.scottish.parliament.uk/vli/education/youth/index.htm

This is the Scottish Parliament's site for young people. Everything you wanted to know about decision making, voting and elections in Scotland is here.


http://www.explore.parliament.uk/

This is the UK parliament site especially for young people. It tells you what happens in parliament, how laws are made and has loads of information on UK elections too. There are loads of activities here too.


http://www.headsup.org.uk

This site is especially for under 18s. Some politicians think young people are more interested in "Big Brother" than they are in politics. This site proves them wrong. Check it out and be sure to take part in one of their forums.


http://www.highlandyouthvoice.org

The Highland Youth Voice is an elected parliament that makes sure that the young people of the Highlands have their say in issues that affect them. It's a great example of young people taking charge and making a real difference.
