At least such a conclusion can be drawn from the remarks and statements made by students during the round table on the topic "Public Assessment of the Government from the Perspective of Youth." This refers to an event held on March 30 in the premises of the History Faculty of the Volyn State University, organized by the Volyn branch of the Union of Youth of the Regions and the Youth Parliament of Volyn. According to the organizers' plan, it was intended to gather representatives of student self-government bodies of the state university (that is, people who are active in principle) and together with them discuss the results of the implementation of Yanukovych's government program "Openness. Effectiveness. Transparency." Based on the results of the round table, specific proposals to the government for improving activities were to be developed. But as always, things did not go as planned. Firstly, the student youth themselves, who came to this event on a wonderful spring day, did not even imagine where they were going and what would be discussed there. As always - everyone was "notified" through the dean's offices and told to come without fail, so no dialogue could even be discussed. Students were simply "herded" together for yet another event "for the sake of a checkmark." At first, the youth quietly and indifferently listened to the organizers' reports about the great successes of Yanukovych's government in all spheres of life. But later, when these organizers began to ask the students what they would like to change in the government's program and what proposals they had for the Cabinet of Ministers - the youth's patience ran out and they began to loudly express their indignation. First of all, the students were interested in how the catastrophically large figures of growth in everything that only grows had affected the life of each of them, because no one can speak of an improvement in their well-being. It was emphasized that the problems of youth have been known to politicians for more than a year now, yet despite promises, no one has yet systematically undertaken to solve them. The students were also dissatisfied that certain political forces were once again using them for their own needs. Especially since quite recently, at the Forum of Activists of Student Self-Government of the Region, students declared, in the presence of university leadership and regional leadership, that the forced use of students in various political actions is unacceptable and in the event of such facts being discovered, the youth would respond accordingly. But neither the regional department of family and youth, nor the Volyn State University named after Lesya Ukrainka (whose representatives were also present at the event) adhere to the wishes of the students, going along with the political forces influential among state structures. But be that as it may - the event took place, the checkmark was placed. But how effective was this event and did it bring benefit to anyone? The students, probably, apart from wasted time, gained nothing from the meeting (except perhaps meeting once again unnecessarily). Yanukovych, too, it seems, did not enrich himself with additional votes in the elections - this, on the contrary, will turn student activists away from him. The government, which already knows the problems of youth, because these problems are older than the youth, will probably also not receive any valuable advice. Perhaps only the organizers gained more experience in conducting such events. Although it is precisely the latter who should be wished to work in the future using democratic methods; one cannot solve all problems with administrative resources all the time.
