In this episode of YEPs on the Ground, we sit down with Maksim Sadinov, a Young Elected Politician from Gabrovo, Bulgaria, and a member of the EPP group at the European Committee of the Regions.

Maksim brings his insight into how local and regional authorities can lead Europe’s digital and economic transformation; while ensuring that youth are part of the solution. From the power of community-based innovation to the role of universities as regional changemakers, he shares how young people can become key drivers of resilient, future-ready regions.

We also explore his own experiences working on local development and digital innovation projects, and hear his advice for young Europeans eager to shape their communities from the ground up.

A conversation on policy, participation, and making impact where it matters most, tune in to hear why local engagement can be a gateway to European change.
