So, my country finally has a socialist party, yay!

A group of about 5-10 of us younger people are now starting the youth wing. That's about as far as we've gotten.

Now we need to do everything else, but we're absolutely lost on what to do and how to do it.

We're currently discussing writing a manifesto or something of the sorts. How do we do that? What do we include?

We want to do outreach and start bringing more young people in. how the hell do we do that? We started a official twitter and a discord, but it's mostly just the same few of us there. How do we reach highschoolers? How do we reach young working people? Currently we're trying to each bring one person into the fold, but that's obviously going to take time.

My main input so far has been suggesting some sort of monthly open social events and also trying to actively and publicly do praxis as the youth wing, joining protests, doing volunteer work etc. and posting about it.

So, yeah, pretty much ANY help in getting us started would be appreciated.

Love you all and I hope you have a great week <3

E: If this is the wrong comm, I can post this elsewhere.

I can post which country we're in if you guys need it, but people here keep talking about opsec, so idk.

    When just starting out I think you should try and find some campaign to organize around, and then you can tell people to come to your org to help out with setting up flyers, protests, etc. Later on you might try and make some unions like maybe a student union but to start out I suggest trying to do some simple, winnable campaign even if it's largely symbolic
