5393 sayılı “Belediye Kanunu” ile kurulan kent konseyleri yönetmeliğinin altıncı maddesi kent konseylerinin görevlerini tanımlamaktadır. Bu görevlerden bir tanesinin de “çocukların, gençlerin, kadınların ve engellilerin toplumsal yaşamdaki etkinliklerini arttırmak ve yerel karar alma mekanizmalarında aktif rol almalarını sağlamak” olduğu belirtilmiştir. Ancak gençlerin kent konseyi gibi yerel katılım mekanizmaları aracılığıyla karar alma süreçlerine katılımları oldukça düşüktür. Bunun nedenlerinden biri de gençlerin yerel karar alma süreçlerine nasıl katılacakları hakkında bilgi sahibi olmamalarıdır. Çalışmada Anadolu Üniversitesi öğrencilerinin genel olarak kent konseyleri ve özelde ise Eskişehir’de yer alan kent konseylerine yönelik bilgi, algı ve tutumlarının tespit edilmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiş olan saha çalışması sonuçlarına yer verilmiştir. 1005 kişiyle anket tekniği uygulanarak elde edilen sonuçlar gençlerin kent konseylerine yönelik algılarının belirlenmesi açısından büyük önem arz etmektedir.
Article 6 of the City Council Regulations established by the "City Law" No. 5393 defines the functions of the City Council. One of these tasks is “to increase the activity of children, young people, women and persons with disabilities in social life and to ensure that they play an active role in local decision-making mechanisms.” However, the participation of young people in the decision-making processes through local participation mechanisms, such as the City Council, is quite low. One of the reasons for this is that young people don’t know how to participate in local decision-making processes. The study included the results of the field work that were conducted in order to identify the knowledge, perceptions and attitudes of the students of the Anadolu University in general to the city councils and in particular to the city councils located in Eskişehir. The results obtained by the application of the survey technique with 1005 people are of great importance for the determination of the perceptions of young people towards the city councils.

By the way, city councils in this framework will be able to self-criticize whether they fulfill their duties.
