Summary | Swiss towns traditionally invite all of their citizens who turn 18 to a young citizens’ celebration to initiate them into the life of their town, meet the town council, find out about their right, and to mingle with fellow young citizens during some fun activities. Less and less youths however responded to such invites and so the town of Sirnach decided to send their invites via text message and WhatsApp. This is meant to create a group dynamic so that young citizens would animate fellow young citizens to attend the celebration.
