Svi bi trebalo da učestvuju u donošenju odluka i politici, a to počinje kod kuće, kaže aktivistkinja Hadžer Šarif. Ona predstavlja ideju koja je jednostavna, ali transformativna: da roditelji mogu da uče svoju decu političkom učestvovanju tako što će im dati reč u upravljanju domaćinstvom, u vidu iskrenih porodičnih sastanaka na kojima svako može izneti svoje mišljenje, pregovarati i praviti kompromise. „Moramo da naučimo ljude da su politička, nacionalna i globalna pitanja podjednako važna za njih kao i lične i porodične stvari,“ kaže ona. „Možete li zaista priuštiti da vas ne zanima ili da ne učestvujete u politici?“

00:35
and we even had a notetaker.
5
23058
2469
a imali smo čak i zapisničara.
00:37
These meetings had two rules.
6
25551

Ti sastanci su imali dva pravila.
00:39
First, you are allowed

Nama deci je bilo dozvoljeno
da kritikujemo roditelje,

00:45
without that being considered
disrespectful or rude.

9
33628

a da se to ne smatra nepoštovanjem
ili nepristojnim ponašanjem.

00:48
Second rule was the Chatham House rule,
10
36968

Drugo je bilo pravilo Doma Čatam,
00:51
meaning whatever is said in the meeting
stays in the meeting.

11

što znači da sve što se izgovori
na sastanku, ostaje na sastanku.
na sastanku, ostaje na sastanku.

00:56
The topics which were discussed

Teme o kojima se raspravljalo
na ovim sastancima
na ovim sastancima
00:59
varied from one week to another.
14
47165
2411
razlikovale su se iz nedelje u nedelju.
01:01
One week, we'd talk about
what food we wanted to eat,

15
49600

Jedne nedelje bismo govorili
o tome koju hranu hoćemo da jedemo,

what time us kids should go to bed
16
53090
2701
u koje vreme mi deca
treba da idemo u krevet
treba da idemo u krevet
01:07
and how to improve things as a family,
17
55815
2587
i kako da poboljšamo stvari kao porodica,
01:10
while another meeting discussed
pretty much events that happened at school
pretty much events that happened at school
18
58426

dok smo na drugom sastanku pričali
uglavnom o događajima iz škole

01:15
and how to solve
disputes between siblings,

i kako da rešimo sporove
među braćom i sestrama,
među braćom i sestrama,
01:18
by which I mean real fights.
20
66451
1879
a pod tim podrazumevam prave tuče.
01:21
At the end of each meeting,
we'd reach decisions and agreements

Na kraju svakog sastanka,
ustanovili bismo odluke i dogovore

that would last at least
until the next meeting.

22

koje će biti na snazi
bar do sledećeg sastanka.
bar do sledećeg sastanka.
01:28
So you could say
I was raised as a politician.
I was raised as a politician.
23
76854
4491
Tako da se može reći
da sam odgajana kao političar.
da sam odgajana kao političar.
01:35
By the age of six or seven,
I mastered politics.
I mastered politics.
24
83105
3715
Sa šest ili sedam godina,
savladala sam politiku.
savladala sam politiku.
01:38
I was negotiating, compromising,
25
86844
2843
Pregovarala sam, pravila kompromise
01:41
building alliances
with other political actors.
with other political actors.
26
89711
2808
i gradila saveze
sa drugim političkim akterima.
sa drugim političkim akterima.
01:44
(Laughter)
27
92543
2331
(Smeh)
01:46
And I even once tried to jeopardize
the political process.
the political process.
28
94898
4090
Čak sam jednom pokušala
da ugrozim politički proces.
da ugrozim politički proces.
01:51
(Laughter)
29
99012
1000
(Smeh)
01:53
These meetings sound very peaceful,
civil and democratic, right?
civil and democratic, right?
30
101077
4643
Ovi sastanci zvuče kao da su vrlo mirni,
građanski i demokratski, zar ne?
građanski i demokratski, zar ne?
01:58
But that was not always the case.
31
106421
2001
Ali nije uvek bilo tako.
02:00
Because of this open, free space
to talk, discuss and criticize,
to talk, discuss and criticize,
32
108446
4785
Zbog ovog otvorenog, slobodnog prostora
za razgovor, diskusiju i kritiku,
za razgovor, diskusiju i kritiku,
02:05
things sometimes got really heated.
33
113255
2610
ponekad bi postalo zaista usijano.
02:08
One meeting went really bad for me.
34
116529
2683
Jedan sastanak mi baš nije išao na ruku.
02:11
I was about 10 years old at that time,
35
119236
2067
Imala sam oko 10 godina u to vreme,
02:13
and I'd done something
really horrible at school,
really horrible at school,
36
121327
2295
i uradila sam nešto baš užasno u školi,
02:15
which I'm not going to share today --
37
123646
1811
što neću izneti danas -
02:17
(Laughter)
38
125481
1018
(Smeh)
02:18
but my brother decided
to bring it up in the meeting.
to bring it up in the meeting.
39
126523
4223
ali moj brat je rešio
da to iznese na sastanku.
da to iznese na sastanku.
02:22
I could not defend myself,
40
130770
1779
Nisam mogla da se odbranim,
02:24
so I decided to withdraw from the meeting
and boycott the whole system.
and boycott the whole system.
41
132573
4076
pa sam odlučila da se povučem sa sastanka
i bojkotujem ceo sistem.
i bojkotujem ceo sistem.
02:29
I literally wrote an official letter
and handed it to my dad,
and handed it to my dad,
42
137287
3151
Bukvalno sam napisala
zvanično pismo i predala ga tati,
zvanično pismo i predala ga tati,
02:32
announcing that I am boycotting.
43
140462
1817
najavivši da bojkotujem.
02:34
(Laughter)
44
142303
2158
(Smeh)
02:36
I thought that if I stopped
attending these meetings anymore,
attending these meetings anymore,
45
144485
3540
Mislila sam, ako prestanem
da prisustvujem tim sastancima,
da prisustvujem tim sastancima,
02:40
the system would collapse,
46
148049
1952
sistem će se srušiti,
02:42
(Laughter)
47
150025
1531
(Smeh)
02:43
but my family continued with the meetings,
48
151580
2859
ali moja porodica
je nastavila sa sastancima,
je nastavila sa sastancima,
02:46
and they often
made decisions that I disliked.
made decisions that I disliked.
49
154463
3690
i često su donosili odluke
koje se meni nisu dopadale.
koje se meni nisu dopadale.
02:50
But I could not challenge these decisions,
50
158177
2192
Ali nisam mogla da osporim te odluke
02:52
because I was not attending the meetings,
51
160393
1953
jer nisam prisustvovala sastancima,
02:54
and thus had no right to go against it.
52
162370
2350
i samim tim nisam imala pravo
da se protivim.
da se protivim.
02:57
Ironically, when I turned
about 13 years old,
about 13 years old,
53
165517
4204
Ironično, kada sam napunila oko 13 godina,
03:01
I ended up attending
one of these meetings again,
one of these meetings again,
54
169745
2900
ponovo sam prisustvovala
jednom od ovih sastanaka,
jednom od ovih sastanaka,
03:04
after I boycotted them for a long time.
55
172669
3097
nakon što sam ih dugo bojkotovala.
03:07
Because there was an issue
that was affecting me only,
that was affecting me only,
56
175790
4557
Jer je postojao problem
koje se ticao samo mene,
koje se ticao samo mene,
03:12
and no other family member
was bringing it up.
was bringing it up.
57
180371
3315
a nijedan drugi član porodice
to nije pominjao.
to nije pominjao.
03:16
The problem was that after each dinner,
58
184760
4152
Problem je bio u tome što su,
nakon svake večere,
nakon svake večere,
03:20
I was always the only one
who was asked to wash the dishes,
who was asked to wash the dishes,
59
188936
4032
uvek samo od mene tražili
da operem sudove,
da operem sudove,
03:24
while my brothers didn't have to do
anything about it.
anything about it.
60
192992
3193
dok moja braća ništa nisu morala
da urade u vezi sa tim.
da urade u vezi sa tim.
03:28
I felt this was unjust,
unfair and discriminatory,
unfair and discriminatory,
61
196971
4568
Smatrala sam da je to nepravedno,
da nije fer i da me diskriminiše,
da nije fer i da me diskriminiše,
03:33
so I wanted to discuss it in the meeting.
62
201563
2776
pa sam htela da razgovaram
o tome na sastanku.
o tome na sastanku.
03:36
As you know, the idea that it's a woman
or a girl's role to do household work
or a girl's role to do household work
63
204363
5627
Kao što znate, predstava o ulozi žena
ili devojčica da obavljaju kućne poslove
ili devojčica da obavljaju kućne poslove
03:42
is a rule that has been carried out
by many societies for so long,
by many societies for so long,
64
210014
4222
je pravilo koje je sprovođeno
toliko dugo u mnogim društvima,
toliko dugo u mnogim društvima,
03:46
so in order for a 13-year-old me
to challenge it, I needed a platform.
to challenge it, I needed a platform.
65
214260
4166
stoga mi je bila potrebna platforma
da bih to osporila sa 13 godina.
da bih to osporila sa 13 godina.
03:51
In the meeting, my brothers argued
66
219295
2243
Na sastanku su moja braća tvrdila
03:53
that none of the other boys we knew
were washing the dishes,
were washing the dishes,
67
221562
3535
da ni drugi dečaci koje znamo
ne peru sudove,
ne peru sudove,
03:57
so why should our family be any different?
68
225121
2697
pa zašto bi naša porodica bila drugačija?
03:59
But my parents agreed with me and decided
that my brothers should assist me.
that my brothers should assist me.
69
227842
4936
Ali moji roditelji su se složili sa mnom
i odlučili da braća treba da mi pomažu.
i odlučili da braća treba da mi pomažu.
04:04
However, they could not force them,
so the problem continued.
so the problem continued.
70
232802
3733
Međutim, nisu mogli da ih nateraju,
pa je problem nastavio da postoji.
pa je problem nastavio da postoji.
04:08
Seeing no solution to my problem,
I decided to attend another meeting
I decided to attend another meeting
71
236559
4965
Kako nisam videla rešenje problema,
rešila sam da prisustvujem sastanku
rešila sam da prisustvujem sastanku
04:13
and propose a new system
that would be fair to everyone.
that would be fair to everyone.
72
241548
4417
i predložim novi sistem
koji bi bio pravičan za sve.
koji bi bio pravičan za sve.
04:17
So I suggested instead of one person
73
245989
2775
Tako sam predložila da,
umesto da jedna osoba
umesto da jedna osoba
04:20
washing all the dishes
used by all the family members,
used by all the family members,
74
248788
3819
pere sve sudove koje su upotrebili
svi članovi porodice,
svi članovi porodice,
04:24
each family member
should wash their own dishes.
should wash their own dishes.
75
252631
3986
svaki član mora da opere svoje sudove.
04:28
And as a gesture of good faith,
76
256641
2032
A kao gest dobre volje,
04:30
I said I'd wash the pots as well.
77
258697
2221
rekla sam da ću oprati i šerpe.
04:33
This way, my brothers
could no longer argue
could no longer argue
78
261808
2802
Tako moja braća više nisu mogla da tvrde
04:36
that it wasn't within their responsibility
79
264634
2046
da nije njihova odgovornost
04:38
as boys or men to wash the dishes
and clean after the family,
and clean after the family,
80
266704
3954
kao dečaka ili muškaraca da peru sudove
i da čiste za članovima porodice,
i da čiste za članovima porodice,
04:42
because the system I proposed
was about every member of the family
was about every member of the family
81
270682
5187
jer je sistem koji sam predložila
podrazumevao da svaki član
podrazumevao da svaki član
04:47
cleaning after themselves
and taking care of themselves.
and taking care of themselves.
82
275893
3620
počisti za sobom i brine se o sebi.
04:51
Everyone agreed to my proposal,
83
279537
2088
Svi su se složili sa mojim predlogom,
04:53
and for years, that was
our washing-the-dishes system.
our washing-the-dishes system.
84
281649
4514
i to je godinama
bio naš sistem pranja sudova.
bio naš sistem pranja sudova.
05:00
What I just shared with you
is a family story,
is a family story,
85
288152
3675
Ovo što sam upravo podelila sa vama
je porodična priča,
je porodična priča,
05:03
but it's pure politics.
86
291851
1824
ali to je čista politika.
05:06
Every part of politics
includes decision-making,
includes decision-making,
87
294500
3834
Svaka oblast politike
podrazumeva donošenje odluka,
podrazumeva donošenje odluka,
05:10
and ideally, the process
of decision-making
of decision-making
88
298358
2676
a idealno bi bilo
da proces donošenja odluka,
da proces donošenja odluka,
05:13
should include people
from different backgrounds,
from different backgrounds,
89
301058
2926
obuhvata ljude različitog porekla,
05:16
interests, opinions, gender,
90
304008
3143
interesovanja, mišljenja, pola,
05:19
beliefs, race, ethnicity, age, and so on.
91
307175
3794
uverenja, rasa,
nacionalnosti, starosti itd.
nacionalnosti, starosti itd.
05:22
And they should all have
an equal opportunity to contribute
an equal opportunity to contribute
92
310993
3357
Svi bi oni trebalo da imaju
podjednaku mogućnost da doprinesu
podjednaku mogućnost da doprinesu
05:26
to the decision-making process
and influence the decisions
and influence the decisions
93
314374
3809
procesu donošenja odluka
i da utiču na odluke
i da utiču na odluke
05:30
that will affect their lives
directly or indirectly.
directly or indirectly.
94
318207
3571
koje će direktno ili indirektno
uticati na njihov život.
uticati na njihov život.
05:34
As such, I find it difficult to understand
when I hear young people saying,
when I hear young people saying,
95
322742
6102
Samim tim mi je teško da razumem
kada čujem kako mladi govore:
kada čujem kako mladi govore:
05:40
"I'm too young to engage in politics
or to even hold a political opinion."
or to even hold a political opinion."
96
328868
4318
„Previše sam mlad
da bih se uključio u politiku,
da bih se uključio u politiku,
ili čak i da bih imao
političko mišljenje.“
političko mišljenje.“
05:45
Similarly, when I hear some women saying,
97
333569
2401
Slično tome, kada čujem
kako neke žene govore:
kako neke žene govore:
05:47
"Politics is a dirty world
I don't want to engage with,"
I don't want to engage with,"
98
335994
4023
„Politika je prljav svet
u koji ne želim da se uključujem,“
u koji ne želim da se uključujem,“
05:52
I'm worried that the idea of politics
and political engagement
and political engagement
99
340041
4354
zabrinuta sam jer je predstava
o politici i političkom angažovanju
o politici i političkom angažovanju
05:56
has become so polarized
in many parts of the world
in many parts of the world
100
344419
3963
postala toliko polarizovana
u mnogim delovima sveta
u mnogim delovima sveta
06:00
that ordinary people feel, in order
for them to participate in politics,
for them to participate in politics,
101
348406
4315
da obični ljudi smatraju da,
ako hoće da učestvuju u politici,
ako hoće da učestvuju u politici,
06:04
they need to be outspoken activists,
102
352745
2928
moraju biti istaknuti aktivisti,
06:07
and that is not true.
103
355697
1460
a to nije istina.
06:09
I want to ask these young people,
women and ordinary people in general:
women and ordinary people in general:
104
357835
5683
Želim da pitam ove mlade ljude,
pre svega žene i obične ljude:
pre svega žene i obične ljude:
06:15
Can you really afford not to be interested
or not to participate in politics?
or not to participate in politics?
105
363542
6246
možete li zaista priuštiti
da vas ne zanima
da vas ne zanima
ili da ne učestvujete u politici?
06:22
Politics is not only activism.
106
370172
2067
Politika nije samo aktivizam.
06:24
It's awareness,
107
372263
1151
To je kada smo svesni,
06:25
it's keeping ourselves informed,
it's caring for the facts.
it's caring for the facts.
108
373438
2784

08:24
After all, we've all heard
some version of this sentence:
some version of this sentence:
145
492585

Uostalom, svi smo čuli
neku verziju ove rečenice:
neku verziju ove rečenice:
08:28
"What does a woman,
let alone a young person, who is brown,
let alone a young person, who is brown,
146
496684
4123
„Šta to jedna žena, a kamoli mlada osoba,
koja je braon boje kože,
koja je braon boje kože,
08:32
understand about politics?"
147
500831
1772
može da zna o politici?“
08:35
When you're young --
148
503437
1263
Kada ste mladi,
08:36
and in many parts of the world, a woman --
149
504724
2001
a u mnogim delovima sveta, žena,
08:38
you often hear experienced politicians
say, "But you lack political experience."
say, "But you lack political experience."
150
506749
5740
često čujete iskusne političare kako kažu:
„Ali nedostaje ti političko iskustvo.“
„Ali nedostaje ti političko iskustvo.“
08:44
And when I hear that,
151
512513
1421
Kada to čujem,
08:45
I wonder what sort of experience
are they referring to?
are they referring to?
152
513958
3325
pitam se na kakvu vrstu iskustva misle.
08:49
The experience of corrupted
political systems?
political systems?
153
517307
3465
Na iskustvo korumpiranih
političkih sistema?
političkih sistema?
08:53
Or of waging wars?
154
521266
1938
Ili vojevanja ratova?
08:55
Or are they referring to the experience
155
523228
2183
Ili pod tim podrazumevaju iskustvo
08:57
of putting the interests
of economic profits
of economic profits
156
525435
2184
stavljanja interesa ekonomskog profita
08:59
before those of the environment?
157
527643
1878
iznad interesa životne sredine?
09:01
Because if this is political experience,
158
529545
2229
Jer ako je to političko iskustvo,
09:03
then yes --
159
531798
1151
onda da -
09:04
(Applause)
160
532973

(Aplauz)
09:14
we, as women and young people,
have no political experience at all.

161
542828

mi, kao žene i mladi ljudi,
nemamo nikakvo političko iskustvo.

09:21
Now, politicians might not be
the only ones to blame,

162
549240
5905
E, sad, političari
možda nisu jedini krivi,
možda nisu jedini krivi,
09:27
because ordinary people,
and many young people as well,
and many young people as well,
163
555169
5688
jer obične ljude, kao i mnoge mlade ljude,
09:32
don't care about politics.
164
560881
2169
nije briga za politiku.
09:35
And even those who care
don't know how to participate.

165
563074

Čak i oni kojima je stalo

09:39
This must change, and here is my proposal.
166
567813
3327
To mora da se promeni, a evo mog predloga.
09:43
We need to teach people at an early age
167
571164
3081
Moramo da učimo ljude od malih nogu
09:46
about decision-making
and how to be part of it.
and how to be part of it.
168
574269
3545
o donošenju odluka
i kako da budu deo tog procesa.
i kako da budu deo tog procesa.
09:49
Every family is its own
mini political system
mini political system
169
577838
3578
Svaka porodica je sama po sebi
mali politički sistem
mali politički sistem
09:53
that is usually not democratic,
170
581440
2507
koji obično nije demokratski,
09:55
because parents make decisions
that affect all members of the family,
that affect all members of the family,
171
583971
4183
jer roditelji donose odluke
koje utiču na sve članove porodice,
koje utiču na sve članove porodice,
10:00
while the kids have very little to say.
172
588178
2580
dok se deca baš i ne pitaju.
10:02
Similarly, politicians make decisions
that affect the whole nation,
that affect the whole nation,
173
590782
4150
Slično tome, političari donose odluke
koje utiču na celu naciju,

10:06
while the people have
very little say in them.
very little say in them.
174
594956
2745
dok se narod ne pita mnogo.
10:10
We need to change this,
175
598566
1975
Moramo da to promenimo,
10:12
and in order to achieve
this change systematically,
this change systematically,
176
600565
3288
a da bi se ta promena
sistematski ostvarila,
sistematski ostvarila,
10:15
we need to teach people
177
603877
2009
moramo da naučimo ljude
10:17
that political, national
and global affairs
and global affairs
178
605910
3418
da su politička, nacionalna
i globalna pitanja

10:21
are as relevant to them
as personal and family affairs.

179
609352
5308
podjednako važna za njih
kao i lične i porodične stvari.
kao i lične i porodične stvari.
10:26
So if we want to achieve this,
my proposal and advice is,
my proposal and advice is,
180
614684
4890
Dakle, ako želimo da to postignemo,
moj predlog i savet je isprobavanje
sistema porodičnog demokratskog sastanka.
sistema porodičnog demokratskog sastanka.
10:31
try out the Family Democracy
Meeting system.
Meeting system.
181
619598
3604
10:35
Because that will enable your kids
to exercise their agency

182
623226
3595
Jer to će omogućiti vašoj deci
da vežbaju preduzimanje akcija
da vežbaju preduzimanje akcija
10:38
and decision-making from a very early age.
183
626845
2760
i donošenje odluka od malih nogu.
10:42
Politics is about having conversations,
184
630494
2867
Politika podrazumeva vođenje razgovora,
10:45
including difficult conversations,
185
633385
2139
uključujući teške razgovore,
10:47
that lead to decisions.
186
635548
2137
koji vode ka odlukama.
10:49
And in order to have a conversation,
you need to participate,
you need to participate,
187
637709
3839
A da biste razgovarali,
morate da učestvujete,
morate da učestvujete,
a ne da se odjavite
kao ja kada sam bila dete,
kao ja kada sam bila dete,
10:53
not sign off like I did when I was a kid
188
641572
2073
10:55
and then learn the lesson the hard way
and have to go back again.
and have to go back again.
189
643669
3841
da biste zatim naučili lekciju
na teži način i morali da se vratite.
na teži način i morali da se vratite.
10:59
If you include your kids
in family conversations,
in family conversations,
190
647534
2437
Ako uključite svoju decu
u porodične razgovore,
u porodične razgovore,
11:01
they will grow up
191
649995
1334
ona će odrasti
11:03
and know how to participate
in political conversations.

i znaće kako da učestvuju
u političkim razgovorima.

11:06
And most importantly, most importantly,
193
654733
3297
I što je najvažnije,
11:10
they will help others engage.
194
658054
1870
pomoći će drugima da se angažuju.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Hajer Sharief - ActivistAs an activist promoting human rights in Libya and beyond, Hajer Sharief works against society's flow -- and across generations -- to find solutions.
Why you should listen
When Hajer Sharief was young, she had no risk assessment skills. If she felt like jumping from a cliff, she did so without thinking of the consequences. As an older and wiser activist, she tends to balance risks -- but she still actively keeps an element of risk-free thinking when it comes to doing the right thing.
As cofounder of the Together We Build It Foundation, an intergenerational organization working to builds peace in Libya, Sharief promotes human rights, gender equality and political participation. Doing the right thing regardless of risk remains her life principle, and activism remains her lifestyle -- one that helps individuals become aware of their responsibility towards humanity and the environment.
