- ItemLegal status of youth councils in Poland and France in the light of new legal regulations(Wydawnictwo KUL, 2022) Augustyniak, MonikaThe subject of the paper is the legal status of consultative bodies dedicated to young people, which are established both in the Polish local government and in the French local government community. In both legal orders, these bodies have a consultative and advisory character. However, there are some differences in their structure and forms of action, which may constitute a field of reflection on their legal status.
